Toms River Will Get a New Medical Center from RWJBarnabas Health
RWJBarnabas Health Community Medical Center, Children's Specialized Hospital, and the entire RWJBarnabas Health Medical Group were recently congratulated by Mayor and Council of Toms River, along with Todd Frazier, MLB All-Star and Olympian and his wife, along with other community leaders on the ceremonial groundbreaking of their 90,000 square foot medical center in Toms River located at Route 37 and St. Catherine's Blvd.
RWJBarnabas Health Community Medical Center, now a teaching hospital, is in the midst of a $600 million transformation that will improve the quality and delivery of healthcare at the hospital and throughout our community with their primary care and specialty care.
The benefits of Toms River's transformation into a first-class regional healthcare center cannot be understated.
"It's a home run!"
Todd Frazier said in his remarks.
Mayor Hill and the Toms River Council were delighted to be a part of the celebration and to welcome the hospital's expansion.
Staff will soon begin construction on a three-story medical building on Route 37 and St. Catherine Boulevard, which will be shared by Neighborhood Medical Center and Kids' Specialized Hospital.
Later this month, crews will begin preparing the almost 8.7-acre parcel for development. Early in 2023, the 86,000-square-foot structure is expected to open. RWJBarnabas Well being includes the Children's Specialized Hospital and the Neighborhood Medical Center.
The building will serve as the focus for Neighborhood Medical Center's services in the western Toms River area, including imaging, ambulatory surgical procedure, pre-admission testing, and physical and occupational therapy. The main care and orthopedic physicians of RWJBarnabas Health Medical Group may also have offices there.
On the new building, the Children's Specialized Hospital will merge outpatient services that are currently located on Lakehurst Street and Stevens Street in Toms River.
Developmental and behavioral pediatrics, neurology, physical drugs and rehabilitation, psychiatry and psychology, and occupational, physical, and speech therapy are among them. An early intervention program office on Washington Road will also relocate to the new building.
It is all a part of a pattern that’s unfolding across the space: cluster medical providers in neighborhoods so sufferers need not go to the hospital for routine care similar to bodily remedy, lab work or X-rays. They’re even popping up in retail facilities.
