History

CalvertHealth was previously known as Calvert Memorial Hospital. On September 14, 2017 CalvertHealth broke ground for a $51 million expansion to convert into all private rooms. The biggest expansion since the hospital opened in 1919. Also on September 14, 2017 Calvert Memorial Hospital changed its name and logo to CalvertHealth Medical Center.

CalvertHealth was originally located along Main Street in Prince Frederick until the 1950s, when it moved to a single story facility on 100 Hospital Road. In 1978, the hospital moved to its current five story building adjacent to the old hospital building. The current facility has been expanded numerous times since opening its doors.
