Ground Broken on UM Shore Regional Medical Center in Maryland

The new facility is expected to open by the end of summer 2028.

By HFT Staff


Governor Wes Moore joined elected officials and leadership from the University of Maryland Medical System for the groundbreaking of the UM Shore Regional Medical Center. 

Upon completion, the UM Shore Regional Medical Center will replace the existing hospital in downtown Easton. The new facility will house 147 licensed beds and will provide a comprehensive array of emergency, behavioral health and cardiology services. The facility’s location will also offer easier and safer access for ambulance and helicopter transport, in addition to ample parking for patients, staff and visitors. 

The $540 million estimated cost of the project will be covered by bonds, public and private philanthropy, federal grants and $100 million in state funds committed under the Governor’s Capital Budget through FY2028. The new facility is expected to open by the end of summer 2028.
