Trust me if they could legally stop LEO from carrying on site they would do that too. I think its shameful we have allowed private opinion to usurp our rights.
This sing is located at my local hospital in Inverness FL. , Citrus Memorial Hospital. I thought it was a bit strange it included the wording "including concealed weapons carrying permits"
In case you can't read it it states....
FIREARMS ARE NOT PERMITTED ON THESE PREMISES
Carrying of firearms is not permitted on CMHS property
(including concealed weapons carrying permits)
With the exception of Law Enforcement Officers.
VIOLATORS WILL BE CONSIDERED TO BE TRESPASSING AND WILL BE ASKED TO VACATE THE PREMISSES
No big deal just thought I'd share

Here in Michigan it is the law that we cannot carry in a hospital.
For now....
SB 58 is supposed to be coming out of committee in the near future, and it appears that it has the votes to pass - as long as Snyder doesn't veto it. SB 58 will do away with gun free zones for CPL holders. Private property owners will still be able to declare their properties off-limits. I am working with legislators to get a bill passed that will prohibit businesses (places of public accommodation) from preventing employees or customers from exercising their Second Amendment and Michigan constitutional right to self defense.
"...God, has bestowed upon every one of us the right to defend his person, his liberty, and his property..." Frederic Bastiat, The Law, 1850. "...And let the one who has no sword sell his cloak and buy one." Jesus Christ, Luke 22:36
If caught, you will be asked to leave. So what?
The Sentara & CHKD hospitals in Hampton Roads Virginia have the same sign. Sentara asks that you store your legally carried weapon with hospital security. I for one am not leaving my gun with them.

THIS IS B*** S***
As a retired LE, i love having friendly guns around me.
Our local hospital here in Idaho also has a sign. It's probably common practice with hospitals. I ignore it. As mentioned earlier, they will ask you to leave... so what?
The OP is from Florida. You need to know if your hospital has Psych facilities.
F.S. 394.458 says that “…except as authorized by law…” “…it is a 3rd degree felony to bring, possess or transport a firearm…” on the grounds of any hospital providing mental health services. Most all E.R.’s have a “Psych room”. While F.S. 790.06(12) does not specifically prohibit it; there is no case law yet. Want to be a test case?
