Patients in Palm Beach and Broward counties now have expanded access to advanced specialty care close to home with the opening of the new Gloria Drummond Patient Tower at Boca Raton Regional Hospital, part of Baptist Health. The hospital was able to construct the addition due to a $450 million fundraising campaign. The expansion will bring the hospital up to 1 million square feet.

The eight-story, 427,000-square-foot tower includes:

• 20 operating rooms
• An intensive care unit
• Expanded surgical and cardiovascular services
• 216 private patient rooms

With the expansion, Boca Raton Regional Hospital will have 561 licensed beds, making it the largest hospital in Palm Beach County.

The tower’s new surgical facilities are designed to support complex, robotic and minimally invasive procedures. Two hybrid operating rooms combine surgical capabilities with advanced imaging technology.

Clinical technology is only part of the new tower’s design. All patient rooms are private and feature AI-assisted smart technology intended to support safety, clinical efficiency, privacy and the patient’s experience.
