With the groundbreaking of the John H. “Jack” Burbage Jr. Regional Cancer Care Center in Berlin Wednesday afternoon, Worcester County is about to move forward in the fight against cancer.
“It’s a new beginning for cancer care in the community, and a culmination of dreams of community leaders and hospital staff,” Atlantic General Hospital President and CEO Michael Franklin said during the groundbreaking ceremony.
“This continues the journey we started years ago with our first facility, by further expanding quality of care to those facing an cancer diagnosis.”
The 18,000-square-foot center is slated to be built on the Atlantic General Hospital Campus on the corner of Route 113 by spring 2018. The facility will provide one location for treatment of patients with cancer and blood disorders.
The cancer center will also feature radiation oncology, PET imaging and community education and support groups.
