Maryland’s Health Matters - Upper Chesapeake - Fall 2017 - 3

A HEALTHY START
LETTER FROM THE CEO

MOVING FORWARD
Riding my bicycle this time of year
reminds me of how fortunate I am
to live and work here in Harford
County. The beautiful fields, trails
and recreational parks are great
places to unwind and witness the
changing colors and cooler breezes
of the season. Enjoy!
Progress on our Vision 2020 planning continues.
Our plans include building a new campus on our
property located on Interstate 95 and Bulle Rock
Parkway and an expansion to the Bel Air campus.
We have filed a Certificate of Need for our Behavioral
Health facility and our Certificate of Exemption for
Phase 1 of the medical campus-both located in Havre
de Grace. In Bel Air, we have filed a Certificate of
Exemption for the expansion of the Kaufman Cancer
Center building, and we are restructuring our parking
lots to add more options for patients and visitors.
I encourage you to follow us on Facebook and visit
our website, umuch.org/healthy, to keep pace with
us on this exciting journey!
