Outside of the hospital, our residents have the unique opportunity of living a short train ride away from New York City, offering ample cultural and culinary activities to enjoy. New Jersey does not have its shortage of food options, with world famous diners, pizza, and an abundance of ethnic cuisines. New Jersey also offers plentiful options for recreational activities, including hiking, biking, and beaches.

Most residents live in towns surrounding the hospital, with both urban and suburban options to choose from.
