History

20th century

In October 1908, Florida Sanitarium was founded when Seventh-day Adventists bought a farmhouse for $9,000. [5] [6] [7] It had formerly been a tuberculosis sanitorium and was located between two lakes in the community of Formosa north of Orlando. [5] Florida Sanitarium opened with 20 beds, two physicians, a dairy cattle and four patients. [5]

In 1912, a building made of concrete was constructed across the farmhouse. [5] In 1918, a third story was added to the sanitarium increasing the capacity to 60 beds. [5] In 1925, a new wing was constructed connecting the farmhouse to the concrete building. [5]

Beginning in the 1940s, Florida Sanitarium began using modern medicines, molecular diagnostic and surgical procedures. It also constructed new buildings to replace the old buildings. [5]

In March 1969, a helipad was built at Florida Sanitarium. [8] In 1970, Florida Sanitarium changed its name to Florida Hospital Orlando. [5] In 1986, Florida Hospital Orlando bought a helicopter and it was stationed at the hospital. [9]

21st century

On January 2, 2019, Florida Hospital Orlando changed its name to AdventHealth Orlando. [10] [11] On March 11, 2019, AdventHealth Orlando filed with the city of Orlando to expand its emergency department by 45,000 square feet. [12] [13] [14]

On October 21, 2020, 1,800 solar panel carport was installed at AdventHealth Orlando on top of its McRae parking garage. It can charge over thirty-two electric cars. It will create 1.3 million kilowatts yearly and will save over $4.6 million in energy costs. [15] [16] [17]

On January 1, 2021, the United States government required all hospitals to have their chargemaster on its website. [18] On February 10, 2023, almost all of the AdventHealth hospitals had their chargemaster on their website, including AdventHealth Orlando. [19]

On October 12, 2021, a construction crane collapsed onto a parking garage that was being built at the AdventHealth Orlando campus. One construction worker was taken to Orlando Regional Medical Center with traumatic injuries. [20] [21] [22]

In May 13, 2022, AdventHealth Orlando bought a second helicopter, they are both stationed in a 7,000 square foot hangar that is being leased at Orlando Executive Airport. [23] [24] It also renovated an adjacent 10,000 square foot building to be used as an office for the Flight 1 programme and a simulator for training the flight and ground rescue fleets. The renovations were finished in 2023. [9] [24] The reason for adding a second helicopter in 2022, Flight 1 transported 1,000 patients to AdventHealth hospitals in florida in 2021. [23]

In early February 2023, Loma Linda University School of Medicine partnered with AdventHealth Orlando, which will allow students to complete their third and fourth years at the hospital. [25] [26]

Services

On November 20, 2019, AdventHealth Orlando announced that it would stop paying legal guardians to take care of its incapacitated patients and would form a review panel to require two physicians to determine if patients can no longer take care of themselves before having a judge appoint a guardian. It would also require more training for care managers. The changes were made after a law firm did an audit of its campuses in Orange County, Seminole County and Oseola County. It was revealed that the hospital had been over billed by disgraced Rebecca Fierle and had paid her almost $4 million for over a decade. [27] [28]

On March 30, 2022, AdventHealth Orlando opened a Post-COVID Clinic to treat patients having symptoms lasting 12 weeks or longer. The patients are suffering from insomnia, brain fog, anxiety and depression. [29] [30]
