Rest in peace, Dozer. The lovable Goldendoodle who captured our hearts and inspired countless others with his spontaneous half-marathon adventure in 2011. What began as a rainy day romp turned into a legacy of joy and community spirit as Dozer crossed the finish line and became an ambassador for the Maryland Half Marathon, raising over $36,000 for cancer research at the University of Maryland Greenebaum Comprehensive Cancer Center at the University of Maryland Medical Center. For 16 wonderful years, Dozer brought smiles and hope to everyone he met, turning a simple run into a beacon of generosity and love. His spirit touched many, and his memory will continue to inspire us to embrace life’s moments with enthusiasm and kindness. Check out more about Dozer’s incredible journey. https://ow.ly/pMrw50SPFnA

Dr. Tiffany Wiggins, VP and Chief Health Equity Officer for the University of Maryland Medical System, recently participated in an expert panel for The Baltimore Banner’s “Legacy Builders” event. The discussion, “The Medical Divide: Addressing Inequities and Injustice in Health Care," included Lester Davis, VP and Chief of Staff for CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield and was hosted by John-John Williams IV, a diversity, equity, and inclusion reporter at The Baltimore Banner. During the panel, Dr. Wiggins described her journey to becoming a health equity enthusiast and emphasized how patients, providers, and systems can address medical bias. She reminded us that we “measure what we treasure” and that healthcare organizations can more meaningfully advance equity by leveraging the insights and expertise of community partners to identify root causes and design cross-sector solutions.

Bert W. O’Malley, MD, President and CEO at the University of Maryland Medical Center (UMMC) spoke at a City of Baltimore press event at Baltimore City Mayor’s Office of Homeless Service celebrating the statewide expansion of Maryland’s Medicaid Supportive Housing Waiver. With contributions from the University of Maryland Medical System and our team members at UMMC, this innovative pilot program provided intensive resources to support chronically homeless or medically vulnerable households while significantly reducing readmissions. This achievement highlights the incredible outcomes possible when we work together. That’s a better state of care. #Maryland #housing #healthcare
