Share Your Thanks

Last week, staff at RWJBarnabas Health at Bayonne found a simple three word message scrawled in chalk on the sidewalk: “Heroes work here.”

Through the action of an anonymous individual in Bayonne, one little gesture had enormous impact.

And we couldn’t agree more. The 44,000 employees, clinicians and physicians throughout RWJBarnabas Health are working tirelessly to protect and keep New Jersey’s residents, families, friends and colleagues safe and healthy in the face of this unprecedented pandemic.

Be a hero yourself and help us recognize these selfless individuals, especially those on the front lines.

We are in this together. Let’s beat COVID-19 together. Let’s be healthy together.
