Arbutus Medical Supply Hub – UMBC, BWI & Baltimore Beltway Ready
Situated inside Walmart #3720 at 3601 Washington Boulevard, LAC Health’s Arbutus counter keeps University of Maryland Medical Center Midtown & Downtown campuses, Saint Agnes Hospital, UM Rehabilitation & Orthopaedic Institute, UMBC Student Health, Baltimore County Fire Department, CSX Halethorpe Yard, and BWI cargo tenants stocked within minutes of I‑695, I‑95, and MD‑295.
Within eight miles are UMBC, CCBC Catonsville, Saint Agnes Hospital, UM Rehab & Ortho, UMMC trauma centers, MedStar Harbor Hospital, Baltimore Veterans Affairs Medical Center outreach clinics, BWI Thurgood Marshall Airport, Guinness Open Gate Brewery EMS staging, and Howard County logistics parks. Beltway crashes, MARC/Amtrak incidents, BWI aircraft emergencies, and Orioles/Ravens crowds constantly pull on regional supply chains—this Washington Boulevard hub keeps critical inventory on the southside of Baltimore.
Arbutus grew around streetcar suburbs, Halethorpe rail yards, and defense plants feeding WWII operations. The community now bridges Baltimore City, Anne Arundel, and Howard counties. LAC Health honors that history with generator-backed refrigeration, bilingual (English/Spanish/Korean) instructions, and ICS workflows synced with Baltimore County OEM and the Maryland Department of Transportation.
