UTMB's Angleton Danbury campus celebrated its 10-year anniversary in August. Here's a little info about ADC:
Angleton Danbury Hospital District's (established in 1967) mission was to provide a general hospital to serve the residents of Brazoria County. Angleton Danbury General Hospital opened its doors in 1969.
Changing the hospital's name in 1999 to reflect future growth, Angleton Danbury Medical Center remained home to a forward-moving board of directors and hospital administration team. Continuing their plan to meet the needs of the community as well as encompass new health care arenas, the hospital district designed a state-of-the-art Surgical and Cardiac Care Unit, again embracing one of the nations' fast growing trends—outpatient surgery.
Continuing its growth, ADMC opened the Frank W. Stevens Center for Health and Wellness, offering the community a safe place to exercise and access educational material on a wide range of health-related topics.
With the Houston corridor moving quickly into Brazoria County, strategic plans were made to accommodate the growth headed into the hospital district. With the support of the district's residents, a $22 million expansion and renovation project, which impacted every patient care and service area on the campus, was approved. Breaking ground in August 2004 and completed in June 2006, from start to finish, Angleton Danbury Medical Center was a showcase for the community, offering many of the latest innovative technologies and patients processes.
In 2014, the Angleton Danbury Hospital District Board of Directors and the University of Texas System Board of Regents approved moving forward with a formal relationship between Angleton Danbury Medical Center and the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston. The effective date of the agreement was Aug. 16, 2014.
The goal was to strengthen the ability of the two organizations to succeed in an accountable care environment while providing patients access to high-quality care close to their homes.
Throughout the transition, all involved remained focused on the needs of patients served by UTMB Health Angleton Danbury Campus. Patient care was not interrupted, and excellent care continues to be provided for the 60,000 residents in the region.
UTMB Health Angleton Danbury Campus continues to look into the community's future and plan for its health care needs. It's a promise made yesterday, kept for today and pledged for tomorrow.
