The West Florida division of AdventHealth, a Seventh-Day Adventist nonprofit healthcare system, formally announced the acquisition Monday of the former ShorePoint Health Port Charlotte hospital, a 254-bed full-service hospital, as well as its related businesses. It will rename the facility AdventHealth Port Charlotte. The $265 million purchase of ShorePoint Health's hospitals in Port Charlotte and Punta Gorda was announced last December. The Punta Gorda facility – which closed before Hurricane Helene last September and never reopened – will not be reopened. The West Florida Division of AdventHealtlh currently operates about a dozen hospitals in Florida; the facilities in Charlotte County would be the chain's southernmost.
