The Board of Directors confirmed today that the new hospital facility will be located in Easton as requested. We now shift our focus to monitoring the site development plans to ensure the agreed terms are strictly met.
We petition the Boards of Directors of Shore Health System and the University of Maryland Medical System to locate any new and expanded hospital facilities in or adjacent to Easton. A relocation of our hospital away from Easton would jeopardize the health care of the community that founded and has sustained it, have a devastating effect on our local economy, and be the opposite of smart growth.
The growth in support signals that our position on hospital placement is now a primary public concern. I am currently preparing formal correspondence to the hospital board to ensure these concerns are officially entered into their record.

Easton needs this facility. My family has used this place for years. Taking it away is a huge mistake for the whole county.

Keep the hospital where it belongs. We have waited long enough for services here and moving it further away is just going to hurt the people who actually need it most.

PLEASE keep it in Easton! My elderly parents rely on being close by. This is so stressful.

Bad idea. The traffic alone is going to be a nightmare if they move it somewhere else.

Think about the employees too. Moving it puts their jobs at risk and makes it way harder for locals to get to work.
