Overview
In the early 1960s, families moving into the developing communities of western Monmouth County had no nearby hospital. After a relatively brief planning period, residents, businesses and civic leaders raised the funds that bought the land and built the hospital which is now CentraState Medical Center.
Today, CentraState Healthcare System is a non-profit community health organization serving central New Jersey through an acute-care hospital, three senior living communities, a health education and activities center, a family medicine residency program, and a charitable foundation. Our primary service area includes parts of Monmouth, Ocean, Mercer and Middlesex counties.
Our mission—to enhance the health and well being of our communities through the compassionate delivery of quality healthcare—is a pledge that we will continue to return on the investment our community first made in us more than four decades ago.
Our newest commitment to
healthy lifestyles is a 178,000-square-foot ambulatory campus, set to
open in 2007. It will house a range of new and expanded outpatient health
and wellness services, adjacent to the hospital.
In this report, we describe uncompensated care programs and other benefits to the community and share the philosophy that keeps us ever-focused on the needs of the people we serve. We also outline ways we fulfill our vision as an organization of caring professionals trusted as our community’s healthcare system of choice for clinical excellence.
