Shore Memorial Hospital in Somers Point, N.J., has changed its name to Shore Medical Center, according to a news release by the hospital.
The new name is part of a larger rebranding effort coinciding with the opening of a new, $125 million surgical pavilion at the hospital. The 138,000 thousand-square-foot pavilion features nine state-of-the-art operating rooms, according to the release.
"While we all shared an attachment to the Shore Memorial Hospital name, the overwhelming majority felt it no longer portrayed who we are as a facility or the services we will offer following the opening of the surgical pavilion and campus expansion," Ron Johnson, Shore Medical Center's president and CEO said in a statement.
