The pediatric team at CBMC has been by Niall's side since he was born. A staphylococcus infection at just two months brought Dr. Uzma Hasan into his life. When Niall was diagnosed with Lyme's Disease at the age of 7, Dr. Hasan was once again by his side.

Niall's mom shared, "Her prompt response, attention to detail and genuine concern for Niall's well-being reminded me why I trust her so deeply. Thank you to RWJBarnabas Health for assembling such a fantastic team of pediatric professionals. You have truly created an environment of unmatched care for the little ones in our community."

Niall, a HUGE New Jersey Devils fan, recently had the "Rock Star" experience at a recent game.

The Cardio-Thoracic Intensive Care Unit (CTICU) has earned a distinguished three-star rating from The Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) for its patient care and outcomes in the multiprocedural composite measures, which involves a combination of all cardiac procedures, including valves and coronary bypass surgeries.

The three-star rating, which denotes the highest category of quality, places CBMC among the elite in the US and Canada and reflects superior outcomes in mortality, morbidity and quality of care.

After 46 years working at RWJBarnabas Health, Sandy Mazzeo was ready to enjoy her retirement by cooking, reading, spending time with her four grandchildren, and staying active. But before she had time to enjoy all these things, the osteoarthritis in her hands quickly became debilitating. When a hand surgeon told Sandy surgery wasn’t an option for her, she began searching for alternatives. That’s when she discovered research about low-dose radiation therapy (LDRT) being used to treat arthritis pain.

Learn more about how LDRT targets the inflammatory cells of the affected joint, and is a painless option to treat osteoarthritis. https://bit.ly/49Pgaq6

Thank you to our latest Daisy Honoree, Grisel Agurto, RN, Emergency Department, whose actions and dedication to our shared values of kindness and respect help our patients feel so well cared for during their most vulnerable periods.

“From the moment I met Grisel, she demonstrated what it truly means to be a nurse who leads with compassion, professionalism, and heart. On a morning that began as one of the scariest moments of my life, Grisel stepped in and immediately changed the atmosphere. She carried herself with calmness and reassurance, helping me feel safe when I was overwhelmed with fear and uncertainty. The way she spoke to me, explained each step, and made sure I understood what was happening brought me comfort that I will never forget.

What stood out the most was that she never once made me feel like just another patient. She treated me with dignity, patience, and kindness, and she genuinely cared about my well-being. Grisel went above and beyond to ensure that I was not only cared for medically but also emotionally supported. Her presence turned a frightening situation into an experience filled with hope and peace. Nurse Grisel embodies the true spirit of nursing. She is a light in a difficult time, and she deserves to be recognized for the extraordinary care she provides.”

Our NICU Community

Welcome to the Saint Barnabas Medical Center (SBMC) Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) support page. Many NICU parents agree, the period following the birth of a premature infant can be a difficult time that brings with it many unique questions and concerns. That’s why we created this page, to provide SBMC NICU families with helpful information and support they need, both during and after their baby’s stay in our NICU. We encourage families to use this platform to share graduate stories of their unique experiences and act as an inspiration to those families currently in our NICU.

As a Level III Regional Perinatal Center, the NICU offers the latest treatments and modalities in the field to provide the most advanced care for more than 1,200 premature and ill newborns each year.

Mothers who are at high risk for complications during pregnancy come to Saint Barnabas Medical Center for our specialized prenatal care and take comfort in the fact that, if their baby needs special care after birth, our NICU is among the best in the country and is equipped to diagnose and treat a variety of problems.
