Hackensack Meridian Health Hospitals Named among Best in Region


As chairman of Cambridge Therapeutics, John Klein leverages 30 years of experience in generic drug development and distribution to help increase shareholder value. Beyond his role with Cambridge Therapeutics, John Klein is a trustee of Hackensack Meridian Health Hospitals.

In August 2018, four Hackensack Meridian Health hospitals earned a place on U.S. News & World Report's list of the top 10 hospitals in New Jersey. Hackensack University Medical Center was ranked as the second-best hospital in the state as well as the fifth-best in the New York Metro region. Moreover, it is ranked nationally in colon cancer surgery, hip replacement, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and heart failure, among other areas. 

Jersey Shore University Medical Center, Riverview Medical Center, and Raritan Bay Medical Center were ranked as the 4th, 8th, and 10th-best hospitals in the state, respectively. It was the first time in the top 10 for Raritan Bay, which was also recognized for its high-quality treatment and care of patients with heart failure. In compiling the statewide rankings and acknowledging areas of high performance, U.S. News considered patient experience, safety, and volume as well as quality of nursing care and risk-adjusted survival and readmission rates.
