MISSION ======= WE ARE A COMMUNITY OF CAREGIVERS COMMITTED TO A MINISTRY OF HEALING, EMBRACING THE TRADITION OF CATHOLIC PRINCIPLES, THE PURSUIT OF PROFESSIONAL EXCELLENCE, AND CONSCIENTIOUS STEWARDSHIP. WE HELP OUR COMMUNITY ACHIEVE THE HIGHEST ATTAINABLE LEVEL OF HEALTH THROUGH EDUCATION, PREVENTION AND TREATMENT. HISTORY ======= THE MEDICAL CENTER WAS FOUNDED BY THE CONGREGATION OF THE SISTERS OF ST. JOSEPH OF PEACE (THE "SISTERS") IN 1925, AND IN 1958 WAS INCORPORATED AS AN INDEPENDENT NEW JERSEY NON-PROFIT CORPORATION, SPONSORED BY THE SISTERS. IT WAS THE DEDICATION OF TWO TEANECK SURGEONS AND THE LEADERSHIP OF A SISTER THAT MADE HNMC A REALITY IN 1925. RECOGNIZING THE NEED TO SERVE THE SICK AND INDIGENT OF THE COMMUNITY, DR. FRANK MCCORMACK AND DR. GEORGE PITKIN APPEALED TO MOTHER GENERAL AGATHA BROWN OF THE SISTERS FOR HELP IN FINDING A SUITABLE MEDICAL CENTER SITE AND PROVIDING ADMINISTRATIVE AND NURSING STAFF. THE SISTERS PURCHASED THE ESTATE OF THE LATE WILLIAM WALTER PHELPS AND ERECTED THE MEDICAL CENTER THERE, STAFFING IT WITH SISTERS. AT ITS OPENING IN 1925, HNMC HAD 115 BEDS. FIVE YEARS LATER, A 90-BED CLINIC BUILDING WAS BUILT TO MEET THE NEEDS OF AREA RESIDENTS WHO HAD BEEN IMPOVERISHED BY THE GREAT DEPRESSION. TEANECK WAS LITTLE MORE THAN A RURAL VILLAGE THEN; IN ALL OF BERGEN COUNTY THERE WERE SOME 250,000 INHABITANTS. WITH THE COMPLETION OF THE GEORGE WASHINGTON BRIDGE IN 1931, A SURGE OF DEVELOPMENT FOLLOWED WORLD WAR II AND THE AREA SOON BECAME A THRIVING RESIDENTIAL AND BUSINESS COMMUNITY. HNMC THRIVED AS WELL. IN 1955 A SECOND ADDITION WAS COMPLETED: THE FOUR-STORY, 110-BED MARIAN BUILDING, WITH TWO MORE STORIES ADDED TO THE FACILITY WITHIN THE NEXT TEN YEARS. DURING THE 1960'S, THE WEST WING OF THE MARIAN BUILDING WAS ENLARGED BY THREE MORE UNITS. FACED AGAIN WITH THE THREAT OF OVERCROWDING IN THE 1980'S, THE MEDICAL CENTER COMPLEX WAS ONCE MORE ENLARGED WITH CONSTRUCTION OF THE BRESLIN/KENNEDY BUILDING. IN 1993 THE "NEW ADDITION" WAS CONSTRUCTED, PRINCIPALLY TO ACCOMMODATE THE INCREASING AMBULATORY AND SAME-DAY-STAY PATIENTS, AND A NEW PHYSICAL MEDICINE BUILDING WAS ADDED. A FOUR-LEVEL REGIONAL CANCER CENTER WAS COMPLETED IN THE LATE 1990'S. MORE RECENT ADDITIONS INCLUDE A NEW 41-BAY EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT, A HEALTH AND FITNESS CENTER, AND A RESIDENTIAL HOSPICE, VILLA MARIE CLAIRE. THE MEDICAL CENTER HAS GROWN IN SIZE, REPUTATION AND CAPABILITY WITH EACH ADDITION. AS HNMC CELEBRATES OVER 95 YEARS, IT CONTINUES TO TAKE STEPS TO BECOME A NATIONAL MODEL BY IMPLEMENTING NEW, ADVANCED TECHNOLOGIES AND MEDICAL/SURGICAL TECHNIQUES, AS WELL AS BEST PRACTICES IN PROCESSES SUCH AS SIMULATION LEARNING, HEALTHCARE INFORMATION SYSTEMS, END-OF-LIFE CARE, DISASTER PREPAREDNESS, AND BUILDING CONSTRUCTION AND DESIGN. IMPROVEMENTS SUCH AS THESE ALLOW HNMC TO PROVIDE EVERY PATIENT WITH A SUPERIOR EXPERIENCE CHARACTERIZED BY SAFE, HIGH QUALITY CARE. LEADING-EDGE CARE ================= HNMC IS A COMPREHENSIVE, 361-BED ACUTE CARE FACILITY PROVIDING LEADING-EDGE MEDICAL PRACTICE AND TECHNOLOGY ADMINISTERED IN AN ENVIRONMENT ROOTED IN A TRADITION OF COMPASSION AND RESPECT FOR EVERY PATIENT. HNMC OFFERS HIGH QUALITY HEALTHCARE ACROSS A CONTINUUM THAT ENCOMPASSES EDUCATION, PREVENTION, EARLY INTERVENTION, COMPREHENSIVE TREATMENT OPTIONS, REHABILITATION, AND WELLNESS MAINTENANCE-FROM PRE-CONCEPTION THROUGH END-OF-LIFE. WITH MORE THAN 1,000 PHYSICIANS REPRESENTING DOZENS OF MEDICAL AND SURGICAL SPECIALTIES, HNMC PROVIDES AN EXCEPTIONAL HEALTHCARE EXPERIENCE FOR ITS PATIENTS. A FEW OF THE "CENTERS OF EXCELLENCE

EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS ====================== HNMC WAS ONE OF NINE HOSPITALS IN NEW JERSEY DESIGNATED BY THE NEW JERSEY DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH ("NJDOH") AS A REGIONAL MEDICAL COORDINATION CENTER ("MCC"). THE ONLY FACILITY IN BERGEN COUNTY TO BE SO DESIGNATED, HNMC'S ON-CAMPUS MCC'S PURPOSE WAS ABLE TO BE ACTIVATED IN THE EVENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH EMERGENCIES AND/OR A TERRORIST ATTACK CAUSING MASS CASUALTY INCIDENTS, INFECTIOUS OR COMMUNICABLE DISEASE, OR OTHER TYPES OF PUBLIC HEALTH DISRUPTION. THE MCC ALSO MONITORED, ON A DAILY BASIS, SITUATIONAL AWARENESS OF LOCAL ACTIVITY. IN 2014, THE NJDOH LOST MUCH OF ITS FEDERAL FUNDING FOR THE STATEWIDE PROGRAM,
- CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC ==================== FOLLOWING THE ADMISSION OF OUR FIRST COVID-19 POSITIVE PATIENT ON MARCH 4, 2020, HOLY NAME MEDICAL CENTER, INC. QUICKLY BECAME THE EPICENTER OF NJ'S OUTBREAK AND ONE OF THE FIRST AND HARDEST HIT HOSPITALS IN THE COUNTRY. WITH THE COVID INPATIENT CENSUS DOUBLING EVERY FOUR DAYS TO A PEAK OF 251 INPATIENTS, AND THOUSANDS OF VIRUS-POSITIVE PATIENTS BEING MONITORED IN THEIR HOMES WITH TELEMEDICINE, HOLY NAME WAS "GROUND ZERO" OF THE PANDEMIC. HOLY NAME'S MASSIVE CRISIS RESPONSE AND MANAGEMENT EFFORT TO CONFRONT UNPRECEDENTED CHALLENGES RESULTED IN A REMARKABLE SAFETY RECORD TO TREAT PATIENTS AND TO PROTECT STAFF AND PATIENTS. LESS THAN 10 PERCENT OF ALL EMPLOYEES WHO WERE TESTED FOR COVID TESTED POSITIVE, AND FOLLOWING THE BUILDING OF FIVE NEW ICUS, NOT ONE EMPLOYEE TESTED POSITIVE. WE RETROFITTED THE MEDICAL CENTER TO BUILD NEW ICUS TO HANDLE PATIENT SURGE AND TO ISOLATE COVID-POSITIVE PATIENTS. OVER FOUR WEEKS IN MARCH-APRIL, OUR FACILITIES TEAM, WITH INPUT FROM NURSING AND OTHER CLINICIANS, BUILT FIVE ICUS CONTAINING 75 BEDS. IVS, PUMPS, VENTILATORS, MONITORS, AND MEDICATION COMPUTERS WERE PLACED OUTSIDE ROOMS THROUGH PUNCH-THROUGH PORTS, WHICH SAFEGUARDED PRECIOUS PPE AND REDUCED THE NUMBER OF TIMES CLINICAL STAFF HAD TO GO INSIDE. OVERHEAD MIRRORS ENABLED CAREGIVERS OUTSIDE TO SEE PATIENTS' FACES, WHILE INTERCOMS FACILITATED CONVERSATIONS. ADDITIONALLY, WE BUILT 250 UNIQUE NEGATIVE-PRESSURE ISOPODS FROM OFF-THE-SHELF MATERIALS READILY AVAILABLE AT BUILDING SUPPLY CENTERS TO SURROUND COVID-POSITIVE PATIENTS FOR TREATMENT AND TRANSPORTATION AND TO PROTECT STAFF. ALSO, 276 NEGATIVE-PRESSURE AREAS WERE CONSTRUCTED. AS THE PANDEMIC CONTINUED, WE DEVELOPED NEW TREATMENT PROTOCOLS AND PARTICIPATED IN CLINICAL TRIALS AS A RESULT OF HOLY NAME'S HIGH PROFILE, WHICH NORMALLY WOULD HAVE BEEN RESERVED FOR LARGE ACADEMIC INSTITUTIONS, FOR REMDESIVIR, BLOOD PLASMA, REGENERON ANTIBODY COCKTAILS, AND PLURISTEM WITH PLACENTAL STEM CELLS, WHICH HOLY NAME WAS THE FIRST IN THE COUNTRY TO USE. IN THE BEGINNING OF JUNE 2020 AS WE EMBARKED UPON A "NEW NORMAL" ON OUR ROAD TO RECOVERY, WE CONDUCTED A DEEP, RIGOROUS CLEANING OF OUR 450,000 SQUARE FEET OF CLINICAL AND NON-CLINICAL SPACE USING MANUAL DISINFECTION, ELECTROSTATIC SANITIZING MIST, AND UV-C LIGHT. OUR ROUTINE STEPS INCLUDE RIGOROUS CLEANING AND STERILIZING IN PATIENT CARE LOCATIONS; ADOPTING NEW SCREENING PROTOCOLS AND PROTECTION PROCEDURES FOR PATIENTS AND STAFF; AND SEPARATING NON-COVID TREATMENT AREAS FROM COVID TREATMENT AREAS. WE HAVE CAREFULLY REOPENED TO THE PUBLIC IN PHASES, EXPANDING SERVICES AS PUBLIC HEALTH GUIDELINES PERMIT. WE ARE NOW SCHEDULING ELECTIVE SURGERIES AND PROCEDURES; RESUMING MANY ELECTIVE TESTS, SUCH AS MAMMOGRAMS AND COLONOSCOPIES; AND OFFERING SELECT IN-PERSON REHABILITATION THERAPY SERVICES. TO SAFEGUARD OUR PATIENTS AND STAFF, WE HAVE INSTITUTED PROCEDURES FOR PRE-REGISTERING, PRE-ADMISSION COVID-19 TESTING, AND ENTERING ALL OUR FACILITIES. OUR WEBSITE, WWW.HOLYNAME.ORG, CONTAINS CRUCIAL FACTS AND INFORMATION ON COVID-19 TO EDUCATE AND INFORM THE COMMUNITY. ADDITIONALLY, WE HAVE A COVID-19 TOOLKIT ON OUR WEBSITE WHICH PROVIDES INFORMATION ON COVID-19 VACCINATIONS, TESTING, AND TREATMENTS. PATIENTS ARE ABLE TO SCHEDULE APPOINTMENTS FOR TESTING AND VACCINATIONS ONLINE AS WELL AS PERFORM SELF-ASSESSMENTS TO DIAGNOSE THEIR SYMPTOMS. STARTING IN JANUARY 2021, WE OPENED UP VACCINATION CENTERS IN TEANECK, WEST NEW YORK, ORADELL, AND PARAMUS. WE ADVERTISED THESE SITES ACROSS ALL MEDIA, SOCIAL MEDIA, AND DIRECT MAILING PLATFORMS TO INFORM THE COMMUNITY ON HOW TO REGISTER FOR THE COVID-19 VACCINATION AND WHERE TO GET IT. WE BUILT AN ONLINE REGISTRATION TOOL TO STREAMLINE THE PROCESS TO ENSURE THAT ALL PATIENTS COULD EASILY REGISTER AND HAVE ACCESS TO THE VACCINATION. THROUGH AUGUST 2022, WE ADMINISTERED OVER 250,000 VACCINATIONS. RECOGNITION =========== HNMC IS RECOGNIZED FOR ITS CLINICAL SKILL, QUALITY OUTCOMES AND HIGH RATE OF PATIENT SATISFACTION BY MULTIPLE NATIONAL ACCREDITATION AGENCIES AND BENCHMARKING ORGANIZATIONS. HNMC HOLDS MAGNET STATUS FOR OUTSTANDING NURSING CARE FROM THE AMERICAN NURSES CREDENTIALING CENTER ("ANCC"). THE MAGNET RECOGNITION PROGRAM WAS DEVELOPED BY THE ANCC TO RECOGNIZE HEALTHCARE ORGANIZATIONS THAT PROVIDE NURSING EXCELLENCE, AND TO PROVIDE A VEHICLE FOR DISSEMINATING SUCCESSFUL NURSING PRACTICES AND STRATEGIES. ONLY EIGHT PERCENT (8%) OF HOSPITALS NATIONWIDE ARE MAGNET RECOGNIZED HOSPITALS.
