AVE MARIA, Fla. — Nearly 20 years after the community was founded, Ave Maria is on track to get its first hospital. Naples Comprehensive Health, better known as NCH, plans to bring 24/7 care closer to home for residents who have long struggled to reach emergency services.
For years, people in Ave Maria have had to drive more than 40 minutes to reach the nearest emergency room. Soon, that drive could be cut to just a few minutes.
