R. F. Jordan & Sons Support F. Eugene Dixon, Jr. Emergency Center with $100,000 Donation
The F. Eugene Dixon, Jr. Emergency Center currently under construction at Maine Coast Memorial Hospital has received a major gift of $100,000 from R. F. Jordan & Sons Construction of Ellsworth. Mrs. Edith Dixon, a member of the Board of Trustees of Maine Coast Memorial Hospital, said she was pleased with such a wonderful show of support. “We are so thankful to see a local business step forth with this level of support. It shows the need and commitment of our community to this state-of-the-art facility that will bear Mr. Dixon’s name.” The new emergency center will replace the current department, which was built in 1989 and designed to deliver care to 12,000 people per year. Maine Coast Memorial Hospital is currently caring for more than 18,000 patient visits annually. The new emergency center will be three and a half times the size of the current emergency department and will have 13 exam rooms plus two trauma rooms. It will feature bedside registration and an expanded waiting area for families. Patrick and Rhonda Jordon are faithful supporters of the Hospital - always attending the Hospital’s Poinsettia Ball and Chefs Gala and providing patron and auction support.
“Our community is fortunate to have businesses such as R. F. Jordan that give back to their community and its hospital,” stated Campaign Chair Bob Merrill. The new structure is taking shape and has a January 2010 completion target date. For more information or to donate to this important campaign, visit the Hospital website at www.mainehospital.org. |
