History

In 1910, Park Ridge Health was founded.[2] In 1984, Park Ridge Health was acquired by Adventist Health System.[3]

In 2012, three whistleblowers at Park Ridge Health sued Adventist Health System for fraud. When the lawsuit was filed the United States Department of Justice, Government of North Carolina, Government of Florida, Government of Tennessee and Government of Texas intervened. Adventist Health System agreed to settle the lawsuits for a total of $118.7 million on September 21, 2015.[4][5][6]

On June 20, 2014, Park Ridge Health purchased a movie theater which was vacant for five years and surrounding land for $1.8 million.[2][7] To build a new medical campus to consolidate its physician offices and outpatient services.[2] On December 15, 2014, demolition began on the movie theater.[8]

On August 1, 2018, Park Ridge Health created a partnership with Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center to allow their physicians to fill job openings at Park Ridge Health. The partnership was created due to more patients at the hospital.[9][10] On August 14, 2018, it was announced that Park Ridge Health would be rebranding its name to AdventHealth Hendersonville on January 2, 2019.[11][12]
