An addition to Baptist Medical Center South in Jacksonville, Florida, was recently completed by The Haskell Company. The addition to the existing medical center includes a new eight-story patient tower with a ninth floor mechanical penthouse and a six-story parking structure. The new tower addition features a 14-bed newborn intensive care unit that is an extension of the NICU services provided by Wolfson Children’s Hospital, a 24-bed nursery, an additional 10 labor/delivery/recovery/postpartum suites bringing the total to 22, 48 acute care beds, four intensive care beds, a new inpatient pharmacy, and cardiology diagnostic area, along with an expansion of the existing central energy plant.
The new addition contains approximately 222,000 square feet of new construction and renovation. It also includes the construction of a new 378,000-square-foot, 1,050-space parking structure. Haskell served as the design/build firm for the parking structure and as the construction manager for South Tower D.
