[3] [4]

As part of the Shady Grove Life Sciences Campus, the hospital established a partnership in 2008 with the Universities at Shady Grove and Salisbury University to offer a bachelor's degree in respiratory therapy at the USG campus in Rockville. [5] [6] It also hosts nursing students from surrounding community colleges such as Montgomery College. [7]

History

When Shady Grove Adventist Hospital admitted its first patient in December 1979, it was located in a "rural" part of Montgomery County, surrounded by fields. With some 2,100 employees, 1,200 Medical Staff and Allied Health Professionals, and 350 to 380 volunteers per month, Shady Grove Adventist delivers more than 5,000 babies, treats more than 108,000 emergency patients at its main Rockville and Germantown emergency locations, and cares for more than 60,000 inpatients each year.

In 2001, a doctoral student committed suicide by hanging at the hospital. [8]

In 2009, the hospital completed a four-year $100 million expansion and renovation project [9] with an expanded NICU and new Pediatric Emergency Department and an expanded state-of-the-art Surgical Services area.

In October 2014, the hospital's name changed from Shady Grove Adventist Hospital to Adventist HealthCare Shady Grove Medical Center. The change was part of a branding initiative to emphasize the Adventist HealthCare system name and better reflect the facility's broad range of services. [10]

A Level III NICU provides pediatric medical subspecialists and surgical specialists who perform major surgeries for patients with congenital malformations or acquired conditions. A Level III NICU is designated for newborns with extreme prematurity, which is 28 weeks' gestation or less, or extremely low birth weight (1000g or less) or severe or complex illness. [13] [14] It is staffed by neonatalogists and neonatal nurses.

In October 2008, Shady Grove Medical Center became the first hospital in the Washington D.C. metropolitan area to offer a Birth Advisor [15] to aid expectant mothers in preparing for their upcoming birth experience. This free appointment with Kathy Schaaf, RN, Birth Advisor, allows expectant mothers a one-on-one discussion with an experienced Labor and Delivery nurse about their individual needs and expectations for their hospital stay. [16] [17]
