The hospital, which is planned to be approximately 91,000 square feet with 120 inpatient beds, will feature dedicated units for treating patients with behavioral health issues compounded by other medical conditions.
The new hospital is the result of a joint venture partnership between Tampa General Hospital and Lifepoint Behavioral Health, a business unit of Lifepoint Health, announced last year. Tampa General Hospital will provide a number of facility and medical support services, while Lifepoint Behavioral Health will manage the day-to-day operations. Physicians with the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Neurosciences in the USF Health Morsani College of Medicine will provide a full range of inpatient and outpatient care in specialized units for pediatrics, adolescents, adults and geriatrics.
