relationship between the community and the hospital leadership.” She is also active on the

previously served on the CalvertHealth Foundation Board of Trustees for eight years and
has been integral in the success of the Harvest Ball, serving on the planning committee since
2003. Dickinson said, “Volunteering with the CalvertHealth Foundation has provided me the
opportunity to help raise money for incredible capital and technology improvements that are
state-of-the-art in the healthcare industry. I’ve had family members as patients and witnessed
firsthand the exceptional quality of care CalvertHealth delivers. They are committed to our
community. As a new board member, I aim to do my part to continue that mission.”

with physicians is paramount to successful quality initiatives,” she said. “I have relationships
with physicians in academic medical centers and have made it part of my mission to facilitate
specialized care at CalvertHealth.”
