Frederick Health is pleased to announce that we have received a $250,000 grant from Truist, via its Charitable Fund and Foundation, for the ReEnvisioning Critical Care Campaign to help fund the renovation and expansion of our hospital’s critical care service areas.
"We are incredibly grateful to Truist for its generosity and continued commitment to the health of the Frederick community. Philanthropy is vital to Frederick Health’s ability to grow and change to meet the needs of our community. We are fortunate to have a great corporate citizen in Truist,” said Frederick Health President & CEO Tom Kleinhanzl.
The ReEnvisioning Critical Care project is a $46 million capital construction project on our hospital’s 7th Street campus to redesign the emergency department to accommodate adult and pediatric patients, modernize the intensive care unit and expand diagnostic and therapeutic cardiac services to meet current and future demand. The project is expected to be completed in early 2024.
“Access to high-quality care is an essential pillar for thriving communities,” said Greg Farno, regional president for Truist’s Maryland region. “Through this significant grant, Truist is recognizing the important role Frederick Health plays in the lives of individuals and families in our region and it’s a tangible way we can bring to life our purpose to inspire and build better lives and communities.”
