Bayhealth looks to Spur Economic Development

Terry M. Murphy, Services President and CEO of Bayhealth Medical Center, recently addressed the Murderkill Lions Club about the future of his organization’s two largest facilities: Milford Memorial Hospital and Kent General Hospital.  The former is scheduled to undergo a five-year, $200 million renovation tentatively expected to start in 2014.  The latter is in the midst of a $147 million expansion.  State Rep. Jack Peterman, a long-time member of the Lions Club, said the massive investment by Bayhealth will spur economic development in Kent County and upgrade the quality-of-life for residents.
