AdventHealth for Women is a non-profit hospital in Orlando, Florida, United States that is owned by AdventHealth.

History

[edit]

On January 9, 2013, Florida Hospital had a groundbreaking ceremony for a new 12-story, 400,000-square-foot women's hospital, at Florida Hospital Orlando for $210 million.[1][2][3] They wore pink hard hats and pink stethoscopes, while they used pink shovels to dig into soil dyed pink.[3]

The babies

[edit]

To celebrate the release of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, the hospital dressed up the babies as characters from the films. Such as BB-8, Han Solo, Princess Leia, Luke Skywalker, Rey, Yoda.[4][5][6]

Visitors

[edit]

On Star Wars Day the 501st Legion came to the hospital, and visited patients dressed as Darth Vader and stormtroopers.[7][8]

Wedding

[edit]

In early May 2024, a pregnant woman got married at the hospital in a bed sheet, while she was in induced labor due to respiratory syncytial virus.[9][10][11]
