Bergen New Bridge Medical Center Selected for CIANJ & COMMERCE Magazine Companies That Care Award

The Medical Center won in the Pandemic Relief category

The Commerce & Industry Association of New Jersey (CIANJ) and COMMERCE Magazine celebrated and recognized companies across New Jersey who gave back to their communities at its 2023 Companies That Care Award Ceremony. Bergen New Bridge Medical Center was one of three honorees in the Pandemic Relief category. The Medical Center’s Community Health Team was recognized for their outreach over the last two years, conducting COVID-19 testing and vaccinations both onsite and out in the community. An independent panel of judges reviewed the entries and chose the honorees.

“Bergen New Bridge has led the way during the pandemic with COVID-19 testing and vaccinations since 2020,” said Deborah Visconi, President and CEO, Bergen New Bridge Medical Center. “This is a well-deserved recognition for our Community Health Team who not only oversaw testing and vaccinations at the hospital, but brought these services into the communities we serve, including marginalized and traditionally underserved communities.”

All recipients were recognized for their achievements in the May/June edition of COMMERCE Magazine, which can be read here.

The Medical Center was also recognized in the May/June issue of COMMERCE Magazine for its outreach to veterans as a VA Community Care Provider and through the Community Health Team’s engagement with the more than 20,000 veterans in Bergen County. Bergen New Bridge provides extensive medical and behavioral health services to veterans both onsite as well as in the communities it serves.

“Congratulations to all our winners for going above and beyond in giving back to their communities and for the crucial work they do,” said Anthony Russo, President, CIANJ. “We are always happy to host this awards ceremony every year, acknowledging the good works of our companies and the real difference they make.”
