About Us
University of Maryland Shore Regional Health (UM Shore Regional Health) is a regional, nonprofit, medical delivery care network formed on July 1, 2013, through the consolidation of two University of Maryland Medical System (UMMS) partner entities, the former Shore Health and the former Chester River Health. As a member of UMMS, UM Shore Regional Health is able to enhance its various clinical programs and facilities and facilitate physician recruitment, bringing world-class medical care to the residents of Maryland's Mid-Shore region.
The UM Shore Regional Health network serves the Mid-Shore region, which includes Caroline, Dorchester, Kent, Queen Anne's, and Talbot counties. In addition to its three hospitals — University of Maryland Shore Medical Centers at Chestertown, Dorchester and Easton — UM Shore Regional Health includes the UM Shore Emergency Center at Queenstown and UM Shore Medical Pavilions at Chestertown, Dorchester, Easton and Queenstown and a broad array of inpatient and outpatient services in locations throughout the five-county region. UM Shore Regional Health also provides urgent care services in Denton and Easton through UM Urgent Care.
