“The facility was build-to-suit for the TGH and Kindred partnership, and the tenancy, location and construction exemplify, we believe, our strategy of acquiring institutional quality healthcare assets across the continuum of care.

“The strong presence and reputation of TGH serving the Tampa Bay community is well known and we are excited to watch the impact on this facility of Kindred’s proven expertise in rehabilitation operations.”

The newly built 80-bed inpatient rehabilitation facility, TGH opened doors for patients in May this year.

The hospital’s services range from physiatry, physical and occupational therapy to speech-language pathology, rehabilitation nursing and nutritional services.

It caters to patients recovering from grievous injuries, surgeries and other complex health conditions.

The rehabilitation hospital, constructed with an investment of $35m, will soon include a freestanding behavioural health hospital and TGH emergency room.

Once ready, these medical facilities are expected to turn Tampa Medical and Research District into a key location for healthcare and innovation in Florida.
