University of Maryland Shore Regional Health celebrated the “topping out” of the new UM Shore Medical Pavilion at Denton on Tuesday, April 3, as the final steel beam of the building’s frame was set into place.
On hand for the occasion were representatives from UM Shore Regional Health, Willow Construction, Fisher Architecture and Klein Enterprises, along with local officials including Scott Leroy, Caroline County Health Officer; Wayne Howard, SRH Board Member and Caroline County resident; County Commissioners Larry Porter, Wilbur Levengood and Dan Franklin; and Denton Mayor Abigail McNinch. Those in attendance joined in signing the steel beam with well wishes for health care in Caroline County.
Situated on six acres at the intersection of Route 404 and Deep Shore Road, the 50,000 square foot medical pavilion will be the hub of UM Shore Regional Health’s outpatient services in Caroline County, providing family medicine, laboratory testing, diagnostic and imaging, rehabilitation services and a community health education suite. In addition, the pavilion is expected to house a mental health bridge program, home health care office, and a shared suite for rotating medical specialties. Construction is scheduled for completion at the end of 2018 with official opening in early 2019.
