We’re excited to share the new rendering of the future Pagidipati Children’s Hospital at St. Joseph’s, opening in 2030. Every detail of the new facility has been intentionally designed with children and families at the heart. From its bold, multicolor exterior with dynamic lighting to playful, family-centered interior spaces, intuitive wayfinding and welcoming common areas, the environment aims to uplift, reassure and inspire hope the moment families arrive.

Congratulations to Jubeth, one of our recent DAISY nurses, an honor meant to recognize extraordinary nurses. Jubeth, an ICU nurse, was nominated by a team member who appreciated the lengths she went to provide comfort to the family of a patient, as well as the patience she showed as she trained a new nurse at the same time.

2025 was a year of celebration and progress for our team. We expanded our services in children's emergency care and interventional radiology. We implemented other departmental updates and milestones that will help us better serve our community. We welcomed our first career camp participants. We recognized each other's wins. We also just had some fun at times! See you all next year 💙

We’re excited to soon bring the most advanced, cancer-fighting treatment to West Central Florida. And so are our patients. See this interview from Tampa Bay's Morning Blend to learn how one dad is grateful that BayCare’s expertise in pediatric care led him to proton therapy and why he is overjoyed to have it close to home for anyone else needing advanced cancer treatment. https://bit.ly/4b63nRa

Proton therapy is one of the most advanced cancer treatments available today. Soon, families in the Tampa Bay area will be able to access this care close to home.
