Raritan Bay Medical Center (RBMC) is a non-profit acute care, community hospital with
locations in Old Bridge and Perth Amboy. A New Jersey state-designated primary stroke
center, RBMC is ranked among the nation’s top ten percent of hospitals in the care of
stroke patients*, a position the hospital has held for the past five consecutive years.
RBMC is also one of less than two percent of hospitals nationally to achieve redesignation
as a Magnet Hospital, recognizing nursing excellence, and has received the
New Jersey Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield patient care quality award for the past three
years.
RBMC provides medical-surgical, maternity, pediatric, general and critical care, as well
as adult behavioral health, emergency and interventional cardiac and same day surgery

hospitals currently participating in a national Johns Hopkins University Medical Center
demonstration project studying the benefits of providing elective angioplasty in hospitals
without onsite cardiac surgery.
The hospital has several specialty services including the Center for Wound Healing,
Center for Sleep Medicine, Center for Women, and Pulmonary and Physical Therapy
Rehabilitation Programs. RBMC is a major clinical affiliate of UMDNJ-Robert Wood
