History
In April 1989, Littleton Adventist Hospital became the very first hospital in Littleton, Colordao when it opened with 82 beds.
In 1996, Littleton Adventist Hospital became part of Centura Health when it was founded by Adventist Health System and Catholic Health Initiatives.
On December 6, 2004, Littleton Adventist Hospital announced that it would expand for $38 million, by adding three stories to its south tower. It would be adding twenty-four intensive care unit beds and thirty-two surgical beds, increasing the hospitals beds to 231. The expansion would be 85,100-square-foot and have shell space for future expansion. Construction began in February 2005.
In late 2017, the Colorado Senate required all hospitals to have their chargemaster on its website by January 1, 2018. Also the United States government required all hospitals to do the same by January 1, 2021. In early August 2022, Littleton Adventist Hospital still had refused to comply with the state and federal laws. To force hospitals to comply with federal law the Colorado House of Representatives and Colorado Senate both passed laws forbidding hospitals from collecting debt by reporting patients to collection agencies.
By April 2019, the hospital had one million patients visit the emergency department, it delivered 50,000 babies, and performed 165,000 surgeries.
On February 14, 2023, Centura Health announced that it would split up. On August 1, Centura Health officially split up with Littleton Adventist Hospital rebranding to AdventHealth Littleton.
In early September 2023, construction workers began building a three story, 97,700-square-foot, heart and vascular tower for $100 million.
On May 15, 2024, AdventHealth Littleton announced that employees had found thirty-one cremains from miscarriages, they were later buried at a local cemetery.
