MDI Hospital’s Campus Improvement Plan is moving forward, and we wanted to share what’s happening next week:

Tuesday, May 20 – Demolition of 9 Hancock Street (Old IT Building)
Employees should plan to use alternate parking on this day.

Wednesday, May 21 – Demolition of 6 Stanwood Street (the white house on the corner)
No impact to parking.

Thursday, May 22 – Demolition of 7 Stanwood Street (the gray shop house)
No impact to parking.

There will be no traffic disruptions on Hancock or Stanwood during these demolitions. Each demolition will begin in the morning and is expected to be completed within the day. If you have questions or concerns please email media@mdihospital.org. If you have questions about an appointment at the Hospital or one of our surrounding Health Centers this week, please contact your providers office directly.

**5/20 UPDATE: Due to additional town paving on Main Street, there is some impact to Hospital entrances and side streets. Knowing this, please arrive with plenty of time ahead of your appointment and communicate directly with your providers office with any concerns.

**5/22 UPDATE: Town paving remains ongoing on Main Street. They have closed Wayman Lane for a portion of the day. Entrance to the hospital is still open and accessible from Hancock Street.

Thank you for your continued support as we take these important steps to improve our hospital campus for the future.

“It’s such a beautiful race,” she said. “The scenery is breathtaking, and the crowd energy is amazing. My mom has come up both years to cheer me on, which also makes it really special.” Whether she’s racing along the island’s winding roads or venturing into Acadia’s trails, Caitlin has found that being outdoors recharges her and deepens her appreciation for the intersection between health, resilience, and nature, a passion that has inspired her next step.

After residency completion this year, Caitlin is pursuing a fellowship in Wilderness Medicine, a field that perfectly blends her love for the outdoors with her dedication to emergency care. “Working at MDI Hospital has been an example of the merger between helping people in challenging environments and working closely in nature that I hope to experience during fellowship,” she said.

Reflecting on her time at MDI Hospital, Caitlin expressed deep gratitude for the people and experiences that have shaped her journey. “I plan to use the skills I have learned across my rotations at MDI Hospital going forward into my medical career so that I can provide great patient-centered care,” she said. “I will also remember the wonderful people I have met and cared for here who have helped shape my medical training to date.”

Whether running along the rugged coastline or responding to patients in the ED, Caitlin has found that MDI offers the perfect mix of challenge, inspiration, and community. It’s no surprise that for her, coming back to Mount Desert Island felt less like returning to a rotation, and more like coming home.
