1130 S. Semoran Boulevard 760x320

An Orlando medical office complex has plans to build its final phase with new buildings.

The Orlando Medical & Professional Complex will add three buildings which total 13,500 square feet on the western 1.8 acres of its 5.74-acre site at 1130 S. Semoran Boulevard. The property currently has five one-story medical office buildings which total 36,595 square feet.

Lake Mary-based Jonosh Properties LLC has requested a master plan approval for the project from the city of Orlando. That request is tentatively set to go before the Orlando Municipal Planning Board on May 16 for a hearing.

Jupiter Medical Center is seeking approval for another major expansion with a new bed tower and parking garage.

The Jupiter Town Council will consider the site plan amendment on April 4 for the nonprofit hospital’s 27.3-acre campus at 1210 Old Dixie Highway. The hospital currently has 248 beds.

JMC wants to build a 92-bed addition on the east side of its campus. The new building would total 135,000 square feet in five stories. To make room for it, the hospital would remove the 10,000-square-foot Ahlbin Administration Building and a temporary modular trailer that’s used for volunteer services.

In addition, it would construct a five-story parking garage with 845 spaces, including 80 electric vehicle charging spaces. That would boost the total parking on the JMC campus to 1,794 spaces.

JMC officials said the project would cost $110 million. It hopes to break ground later this year and complete it in mid-2025.

The hospital is already in the process of expanding. In 2022, it broke ground on a $100 million surgical institute, which was named after Johnny and Terry Gray following a big donation. JMC also announced plans to partner with UF Health to build a community hospital at Avenir in Palm Beach Gardens.

The application letter by planning firm Cotleur & Hearing stated the hospital had virtually no bed vacancy in summer 2022, which is usually its slow season. The new bed tower would support 31 additional doctors.

select medical 760x320

Select Medical announced plans to build a new specialty hospital to include critical illness recovery and inpatient rehabilitative care in the Dr. Phillips suburb of Orlando.  The state-of-the-art, 63-bed facility will be located at 7450 Sand Lake Commons Blvd.

“We have seen a tremendous growing need for post-ICU and inpatient rehabilitative care across the Central Florida region,” said Tom Mullin, executive vice president of hospital operations at Select Medical. “Florida’s population grew faster than anywhere else in the country in 2022, and more than 20 percent of the state’s population is over 65. With that comes a demand for access to world-class post-acute care to help patients heal and recover from chronic, critical illness or catastrophic injury so they may return to quality of life and back to community.”

Select Medical currently operates two critical illness recovery hospitals (licensed as long-term acute care) in Orlando as well as 11 additional critical illness recovery hospitals and three inpatient rehabilitation hospitals and units throughout the state of Florida.

Expected to open in late 2024, the new Select Specialty Hospital will serve patients recovering from chronic, medically-complex conditions and debilitating illnesses as well as injuries including stroke and other neurological disorders, brain injury, spinal cord injury, amputation and other orthopedic conditions.
