In preparation for Hurricane Milton, HCA Florida Englewood Hospital has initiated the planned transfer of patients to other facilities in the area. Patients are being safely transferred to facilities that can best provide the care they require in more stable surroundings. 

Contacts of patients are being notified at this time and a patient reunification hotline has been established at 844-482-4821. Patient transfer is expected to be complete by noon on Tuesday, October 8 when the hospital will close.

HCA Florida Englewood Hospital Outpatient Rehabilitation and Wound Care Center will close from noon on Tuesday, October 8 through Thursday, October 10. This is a short-term solution to streamline resources during the hurricane.
