Message from UM Shore Chief Nursing Officer

Nurses at University of Maryland Shore Regional Health practice in Caroline, Dorchester, Kent, Queen Anne’s and Talbot counties. Our professionals enjoy the best of all worlds – the highest levels of professional practice close to the small towns and rural communities in which they live. 

Our nurses work in a collaborative work environment that fosters nursing excellence, continued growth and learning through our professional advancement model, nursing roadmap and robust tuition assistance programs. We invest in the professional development of all our nurses – from students and novices to experienced professionals.

As a rural health care system, we are extremely proud of our Magnet designation from the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC). Magnet is a symbol of our steadfast commitment to patient care and our relentless passion for quality, safety, the patient experience and team member satisfaction.
