- Description
- Each year in the State of Maine one person in every five needs a hospital! Will there be a bed at Eastern Maine Medical Center for you--for your loved ones--for your employees and members of their families when it is needed? Use of medical-surgical beds at Eastern Maine Medical Center--the major complement of the Medical Center is up 9.2% in the past year. Serving a six-county area of eastern Maine, the Medical Center has been increasingly subjected to a squeeze between ever-increasing changes and improvements in medical practices and the demands of serving the actual needs of the area's residents. Until now, these needs have been met on an "immediate funds available," expediency basis. Now, it has become imperative that a major project of modernization and replacement of outmoded equipment and facilities be undertaken. No longer will piecemeal efforts meet today's needs and those of the future.
