Frederick Health is your community of care; locally led, nationally recognized, and built around the people who call Frederick County home.
From primary and specialty care to hospital and home-based services, our providers work together across the health system. We deliver coordinated, high-quality care without asking you to leave the community you love.
Your community of care, by design.
-
"Your" means something here.
Frederick Health is governed locally and shaped by the needs of Frederick County, not by a distant corporate office. Most of our 4,000 team members live, volunteer, and raise their families here. That connection creates accountability. It builds trust. And it keeps care personal.
-
"Community" reaches every corner of the county.
With more than 25 locations, including a full-service hospital, specialty offices, urgent care centers, and community health programs, care is always within reach. Wherever you live in Frederick County, your health system is here for you.
-
"Care" is more than treatment.
It is innovation brought close. It is a continued investment in facilities, technology, and people to ensure that Frederick County has access to the level of medical care it deserves today and for generations to come.
Here is where…
community is our purpose.
At Frederick Health, that purpose defines everything we do. It shapes the decisions we make, how we invest in our team, the advancements we pursue, and how care is delivered across Frederick County.
