ROME, N.Y. — AmeriCU Credit Union has announced a partnership with Rome Health to support the enhancement of surgical services and critical-care facilities.

The alliance will strengthen the availability of state-of-the-art surgical procedures and critical-care services, focusing on initiatives to acquire advanced medical equipment, enhance facilities, improve technology, and support specialized training for medical staff at Rome Health. Financial terms of the partnership were not disclosed.

“We are excited to partner with Rome Health in their mission to deliver exceptional health-care services for our community and assist those facing challenges by bringing their needs to the forefront of our focus,” AmeriCU President/CEO Ron Belle said in a press release. “By coming together, we can work to build a stronger, more resilient community.”

Rome Health is in the midst of a $45.7 million capital project to build a new Center for Intensive Care and Kaplan Center for Surgical Services.
