History

In 1955, Ormond Beach Osteopathic Hospital was founded by Dr. John Hull Sr. with 12 beds. [1] In 1967, the hospital purchased a restaurant to the south to expand. [1] In the late 1970s, it was named Peninsula Rehabilitation Medical Center. [2]

On May 15, 1998, Columbia/HCA renamed the hospital that they owned in Ormond Beach, Florida to Atlantic Medical Center-Ormond Beach. [3]

In early November 1999, Memorial Health Systems purchased Atlantic Medical Center-Ormond Beach from Columbia/HCA. [4] Atlantic Medical Center-Ormond Beach was later renamed to Memorial Hospital Peninsula. [5]

In late May 2000, Memorial Health Systems chose to merge with Adventist Health System. [6] [7] On October 1, 2000, Florida Hospital a subsidary of Adventist Health System officially took over the management of Memorial Hospital Peninsula and it was renamed to Florida Hospital Oceanside. [1]

Hurricane damage and closure

In 2004, Florida Hospital Oceanside was closed for six months from damage caused by a hurricane. [8] [9] In early September 2012, renovations for Florida Hospital Oceanside were announced that would reconfigure the rehabilitation rooms on the second and third floors for patient privacy. [10] In late April 2016, Florida Hospital Oceanside officially reopened for patients. [11] [12] On October 5, 2016, Florida Hospital Oceanside evacuated patients due to Hurricane Matthew and the hospital was damaged by the storm. [9] [13]

On September 8, 2017, Florida Hospital Oceanside evacuated 31 patients by ambulance to Florida Hospital Memorial Medical Center due to Hurricane Irma. [14] The storm caused wind and water damage, which caused the hospital to remain closed. [2] In late February 2018, Florida Hospital asked the state to transfer the license of 40 rehabilitation beds to Florida Hospital Memorial Medical Center. [15] In early March, the rehabilitation facility at Florida Hospital Oceanside officially moved to Florida Hospital Memorial Medical Center. [16]

In August 2018, the city manager announced that Florida Hospital Oceanside would be demolished due to damage from multiple hurricanes, including Irma, and the discovery of asbestos in the structure. [8] [9] On October 22, Florida Hospital Oceanside went up for sale at $2.5 million. [2] [17] In late December, construction workers began putting a fence around Florida Hospital Oceanside. AdventHealth hired Cross Construction Services to demolish the hospital and keep recyclable materials from going into a landfill. [18] On January 7, 2019, demolition began on Florida Hospital Oceanside. [19] AdventHealth kept 2.44 acres from the site for future use. [18] [19]

In May 2022, Ormond Holdings LLC/Blackstream Development LLC purchased the vacant lot where Florida Hospital Oceanside stood for $2.05 million. [1] [20] Ormond Holdings LLC/Blackstream Development LLC wants to build 15 single-family homes on the former Florida Hospital Oceanside lot and also a parking lot for a Residence Inn by Marriott across the street. [1] [21]

Alleged fraud

In July 2014, a Walgreens pharmacist in Ormond Beach reported a case of prescription drug fraud to local police. [24] [25] A two-year criminal investigation was conducted by the Drug Enforcement Administration, Volusia County Sheriff's Office and the Ormond Beach Police Department into the claim. [26] [27] On February 7, 2017, an administrator from Florida Hospital Oceanside was arrested by the Drug Enforcement Administration close to his house in Ormond Beach for two felonies and put in the Volusia County Jail. [24] [27] In court, he was not convicted and the case was ordered sealed by the judge. [28]
