Our medical center serves as a regional referral, teaching hospital and provides renowned care for cardiac patients, women and infants, and those in needed of emergency services. Our facility is also outfitted with the latest technologies to assist our professionals in providing the highest standard of care for patients of all ages. Our buildings were designed with patient comfort in mind, as well as offering spacious accommodations, natural light, and soothing views of the Statue of Liberty.

Jersey City Medical Center has the distinction of having earned 14 “A” national safety ratings from the Leapfrog Group since the program's inception in 2012.

Jersey City Medical Center is one of only 401 hospitals in the U.S. to earn a Magnet Designation for Nursing Excellence, and the only hospital in Hudson County to have received the designation three times.
