Jupiter, FL | 2023

Rendina Healthcare Real Estate announced the successful opening of multiple Emergency and Urgent Care Centers developed in partnership with UF Health and other project partners in Jacksonville, Florida. These state-of-the-art facilities expand access to high-quality emergency and immediate care services across northeast Florida.

The UF Health Emergency and Urgent Care Centers represent a hybrid model of care that integrates full emergency services with urgent care capabilities under one roof, delivering efficient and patient-centric treatment for conditions ranging from minor injuries to more serious medical needs. Each facility is staffed by emergency medicine specialists and equipped with advanced diagnostic tools, including imaging services and laboratory testing, to support rapid evaluation and effective treatment.

The centers opened throughout 2023 with staggered grand openings: UF Health Emergency and Urgent Care Center – Baymeadows began seeing patients on March 7, UF Health Emergency and Urgent Care Center – Dunn Avenue opened on April 6, and UF Health Emergency and Urgent Care Center – Lane Avenue began operations on April 18.

“Our collaboration with UF Health Jacksonville and Intuitive Health is rooted in a shared commitment to expanding convenient, high-quality emergency and urgent care,” said Richard M. Rendina, Chief Executive Officer of Rendina Healthcare Real Estate. “These centers are designed to address the diverse needs of the community by offering timely, appropriate care in modern, accessible facilities. We are proud to add these important resources to the health care landscape in Jacksonville and northeast Florida.”

The hybrid emergency and urgent care model reduces unnecessary emergency department utilization while ensuring that patients receive the level of care that best suits their condition. By providing both emergency and urgent care services in a single location, the centers help streamline patient experience and improve operational efficiency for the health system.

Rendina led the development of the projects and worked closely with Intuitive Health, who pioneered the combined emergency and urgent care model, and UF Health Jacksonville to deliver facilities that emphasize accessibility, quality, and patient satisfaction.

The opening of these centers marks a significant milestone in Rendina’s continued support of innovative health care real estate development and reinforces the firm’s role in advancing ambulatory care infrastructure in key markets nationwide.

Jupiter, FL | June 12, 2023

Rendina Healthcare Real Estate and PAM Health celebrated the grand opening of PAM Health Rehabilitation Hospital of Jupiter, a new inpatient rehabilitation facility designed to expand access to specialized post-acute care services for residents of Palm Beach and Martin counties.

Located in Jupiter, Florida, the 48,000 square foot facility is a 42-bed inpatient rehabilitation hospital offering comprehensive medical and rehabilitative services. The hospital provides physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, and additional specialized programs delivered by a multidisciplinary team focused on personalized care and improved patient outcomes.

Rendina served as the developer of the project, leading the real estate strategy, planning, design coordination, and construction execution in collaboration with PAM Health.

“We are proud to celebrate the opening of PAM Health Rehabilitation Hospital of Jupiter, which reflects our commitment to creating exceptional healthcare environments,” said Richard M. Rendina, Chief Executive Officer of Rendina Healthcare Real Estate. “This facility addresses a critical need for inpatient rehabilitation services in the region, and we were honored to partner with PAM Health to bring this important resource to the community.”

The facility features a patient centered design that prioritizes comfort, privacy, and convenience. Highlights include spacious patient rooms, advanced rehabilitation gymnasiums, and state of the art therapy equipment designed to support recovery and enhance the overall patient experience.

The development was made possible following Florida’s repeal of certificate of need requirements for rehabilitation hospitals in 2021, enabling PAM Health and Rendina to address an unmet demand for inpatient rehabilitation services in the community.

With nearly four decades of experience, Rendina continues to partner with healthcare providers nationwide to deliver facilities that promote healing, foster innovation, and strengthen access to care.
