Marlborough Campus ER Gets $50K Boost For Renovation And Expansion

MARLBOROUGH, MA — A hospital campus in Marlborough has received another donation for its updated emergency room.

UMass Memorial Health received a $50,000 gift from Avidia Bank Charitable Foundation to support the expansion and renovation of the Emergency Department at UMass Memorial Medical Center's Marlborough Campus, located at 157 Union St.

The project will increase capacity, reduce wait times, and enhance the patient-centered environment, according to the hospital group.

Avidia Bank is a Massachusetts-chartered stock savings bank headquartered in Hudson. It operates nine full-service banking offices in the state.

This comes less than a month after the healthcare system received a $100,000 gift from Main Street Group Foundation, the charitable arm of Main Street Bank. That funding will also go toward the hospital's emergency department.
