Stuart Community Hospital reopens after eight years

Stuart Community Hospital reopens after eight years 2026
Stuart
Stuart Community Hospital reopened Jan. 5, 2026 with an emergency room and 25 licensed beds, eight years after the town's hospital closed.
Braden Health reopened the former hospital building on Jan. 5, 2026 with a ribbon-cutting attended by more than 200 people. Del. Wren Williams cut the ribbon at the 25-bed hospital, which offers an emergency room, inpatient services and radiology. The building had passed through about five owners since the earlier hospital closed in 2017, and the company said the reopening used no taxpayer subsidies.
