A year and a half after AdventHealth Waterman first announced plans to expand its emergency care footprint into Fruitland Park, the much-anticipated free-standing emergency room is ready for patients.
When plans for the facility were first unveiled in early 2025, AdventHealth Waterman emphasized the need to bring 24/7 emergency care closer to home for residents in northwest Lake County. The completed project aims to deliver just that.
Where is it and when is it opening?
The new AdventHealth Fruitland Park ER, located at 201 County Road 466A, will officially open its doors to the community and begin caring for patients on Tuesday, July 21.
What will the new ER feature?
The 14,000-square-foot facility features 12 patient rooms and is equipped to handle severe, life-threatening conditions just like a traditional hospital-based ER.
