NCH officials marked an end to one era and welcomed the start of a new one Wednesday.
Dozens of hospital leaders and medical staff gathered outside the Telford Education Center, which sits south of the Baker Hospital near downtown Naples, to mark the demolition of Telford.
The location is where the nonprofit hospital system will build a new $265 million heart center that was in planning and approval stages with the city of Naples for more than three years and is finally a go.
The 189,000-square-foot, five-story complex that is contemporary in design will consolidate heart and stroke care in one location with the latest technology for optimal patient care. Another goal is recruiting some of the best cardiac and stroke specialists from around the country to join NCH staff.
