The 620,000 square-foot Nemours Children’s Hospital joined Lake Nona Medical City in the Fall of 2012. This 95-bed facility situated on 60-acre campus, houses an emergency department, diagnostic and ambulatory care centers, a research center, and a central energy plant. Designed by Stanley Beaman & Sears, of Atlanta and led by Skanska USA, the state of the art facility achieved LEED Gold certification. Nemours Children’s Hospital is part of a unique, state-of-the-art health campus that also includes Nemours Children’s Clinic, an ambulatory diagnostic center and extensive research and education facilities. But it also takes a holistic approach. Healing gardens, nature trails, pet therapy areas and water features help create a peaceful environment that fosters both mental and physical healing.
