The expansion includes a new pediatric emergency department, more treatment rooms, and surgical suites.

Jersey City Medical Center is part of RWJBarnabas Health system and one of New Jersey’s seven level 2 trauma Centers. 

RWJBarnabas Health President Mark E. Manigan said that the emergency department is in one of the fastest-growing regions in the Garden State. 

“A major upgrade is not only welcome news, but it is also necessary. Now more than ever, Hudson County residents don’t have to travel far to receive the most advanced care available,” Mr. Manigan said. 

The pediatric emergency department expansion was partly funded by a gift from the Abercrombie Guild.  

At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
