AdventHealth has named Clifton Scott chief operating officer at AdventHealth Palm Coast and AdventHealth Palm Coast Parkway, effective June 18.

Scott will oversee the existing hospital on State Road 100 and the new one that is under construction on Palm Coast Parkway. The new hospital is expected to open to patients on Aug. 2; its medical office building will open on June 12, according to a news release from AdventHealth.

Scott has worked for AdventHealth for 15 years and was most recently the vice president of ancillary services at AdventHealth Daytona Beach. He will fill the COO position previously held by Wally De Aquino, who recently became president and CEO for AdventHealth Palm Coast Parkway.

“It is an exciting time in the Flagler County and St. Johns communities, and I am looking forward to this next step in my career,” Scott said, according to the news release. “It is an honor to have the opportunity to support the opening of a second hospital in Flagler County. AdventHealth Palm Coast Parkway will provide additional convenience and comprehensive care to the community.”
