Got baby fever?
We already know New Jersey hospitals rank among the best in the region, so what about for Maternity care?
U.S. News & World Report has released its 2025 Best Hospitals for Maternity Care to help aid families in their search for the right facility that provide high-quality labor and delivery services for uncomplicated pregnancies.
The report evaluated 817 hospitals across the country on several factors such as childbirth rates, newborn severe complication rates, breast milk feeding rates, episiotomy rates, “birthing-friendly” practices, and whether a hospital tracked and reported their outcomes for patients of different races and ethnicities.
In New Jersey, 25 hospitals met the criteria for the list, with five from the Jersey Shore also recognized as High Performing:
- Jersey Shore University Medical Center at Hackensack Meridian Health, Neptune
- Community Medical Center, Toms River
- Monmouth Medical Center, Long Branch Campus
- Ocean University Medical Center at Hackensack Meridian Health, Brick
- Riverview Medical Center at Hackensack Meridian Health, Red Bank
