Brattleboro Memorial Hospital announced Frederick R. Harrison has been hired as Program Director for the BMH Center for Wound Healing.
Harrison’s responsibilities include oversight and operation of the Center in conjunction with BMH’s partner, Healogics, to promote healing of complex wounds in place of amputation, maintaining quality of life for patients. He will also coordinate outreach and marketing with providers in the service area, stretching west from Bennington, east from Keene, and north from Lebanon, New Hampshire.
Most recently, Harrison was the Director of Physician Practices at Northern Berkshire Medical Center. He has also been a practice administrator for Berkshire Hematology and Oncology. In five years, Harrison helped grow that practice from 14 to 68 employees, and increased annual revenues from $8 million to $28 million.
“We are pleased to have Mr. Harrison join the Center for Wound Healing. His vast experience with physicians and other providers will be instrumental in ensuring ongoing collaboration and communication for best practices for wound healing in southern Vermont,” said Marcy Rushford, BMH’s Director of Service Lines.
The BMH Center for Wound Healing is on the ground floor of the Main Hospital building, located at 17 Belmont Avenue in Brattleboro. It is open weekdays from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM. Call 802-275-3674 for more information or to schedule an appointment.
