Johns Hopkins Howard County Medical Center

To support the hospital’s annual United Way campaign, Johns Hopkins Howard County Medical Center employees donated, assembled and raffled 33 gift baskets with themes including camping, books, holiday baking, pickleball and games. We’re grateful for our employees’ creativity and generosity in supporting the important work of United Way every year.

As we celebrate the season of giving back, we’re reminded of the strength of our community. Thank you to the Rotary Club of Howard West for their donation to our Pediatric Emergency Department’s Child and Adolescent Support Area. Their generous contribution provided children safe and comforting activities to use during their hospital visit.

Take a virtual tour of the Johns Hopkins Howard County Medical Center's new Emergency Department Behavioral Health Unit which opened earlier this month! This expansion project more than tripled the unit's size from 1,500 to 7,000 square feet, increasing capacity from 6 to 24 patients. In this specialized, therapeutic environment, patients receive vital mental and behavioral support they need.

Members of the Johns Hopkins Howard County Medical Center Foundation team got in the spirit and shared the holiday cheer by serving rounds of hot chocolate for day- and night-shift staff at the hospital.
