DADE CITY, Fla. – As Pasco County continues its rapid growth, AdventHealth Dade City has unveiled its new Med-Surg 1 Unit, designed to elevate surgical recovery care for the local community.

The new unit features 25 private rooms, located just steps away from the operating rooms, to streamline surgical operations and provide a dedicated, comfortable space for patients recovering post-surgery. The rooms are each equipped with state-of-the-art IV pumps, bariatric-friendly accommodations and walk-in showers to provide the highest standard of care.
Over the past four months, AdventHealth Dade City’s team members have been working hard to prepare the new Med-Surg 1 Unit. Physicians, educators and staff collaborated to ensure the highest standards of care for postoperative patients.
“Pasco County is growing and so are we,” said Shane Bedward, chief executive officer of AdventHealth Dade City. “I’m excited to feature this new Med-Surg 1 Unit, which is going to take care of our patients across the region. These 25 brand-new beds will revolutionize the care we provide and bring whole-person care to the community like never before.”
