Stevens Construction Inc. (www.stevensconstructioninc.com) has started building the pharmacy at Florida Hospital Heartland Medical Center in Sebring.

The construction team will convert the hospital’s existing medical records area into a full-service pharmacy.

The new second-floor space will include a pharmacist’s office, educational library, records control room, intravenous and chemical mix area, and storage space.

HuntonBrady Architects provided the design.

In the past three years Stevens Construction has partnered with the hospital on seven projects, including a recent 36-bed, 50,000-square-foot expansion and renovation of a free-standing medical office.

Tom Doty of Stevens Construction is the project manager, Mike Garland is the superintendent and Lizette Martin is the project administrator. Construction is scheduled for completion in winter 2007.
