Brattleboro Memorial Hospital officials announced that The Trust Company of Vermont has made a pledge in the amount of $25,000 to “The Doorway to Exceptional Care” capital campaign.
With almost three out of every four patients admitted to the hospital first coming through the Emergency Department, BMH is seeking a total of $3.5 million to expand and renovate the 31-year old facility. The additional 2,500 square feet of space will increase the number of treatment rooms and enable the medical staff to provide care with greater efficiency and privacy.
Ellen Smith, BMH’s Executive Director of Development and Community Relations, said more than $3.2 million has been committed thus far to the campaign. “The Trust Company of Vermont has been a longtime supporter of BMH and we truly appreciate that they have again given so generously in support of this essential community need. “
