UMass Memorial Health

After months of discussions, UMass Memorial Health in Worcester and Milford Regional Medical Center have signed a definitive agreement for corporate affiliation, allowing the struggling MetroWest hospital to receive support from Central Massachusetts’ largest healthcare system.

People are on the move at UMass Memorial Medical Group, MutualOne Bank, and Boston BioProducts.

UMass Memorial Medical Center in Worcester is reinstating its caregiver mask mandate for at least one month amid increasing rates of respiratory illness across Massachusetts.

Milford Regional Medical Center’s November gala raised $1.2 million, a record figure for the hospital’s main fundraising event, which included a high level of sponsorship from its potential new partner: UMass Memorial Health.
