************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************* Morristown Medical Center, the flagship hospital of Atlantic Health System, has been building healthier communities since it was founded 126 years ago. Morristown Medical Center was named one of 'America's Best 50 Hospitals' for the third consecutive year by Healthgrades, a consumer-rankings group. The distinction places Morristown in the top one percent of hospitals in the nation for clinical performance. It was one of only 29 hospitals in the nation to be recognized as a Top Teaching Hospital by Leapfrog, and highest-ranking hospital in New Jersey, in both Cardiology & Heart Surgery and Orthopedics by U.S. News & World Report. In 2017, Morristown was the only hospital in New Jersey and one of just 12 hospitals in the country to receive three of the most sought-after industry honors: America's 50 Best Hospitals by Healthgrades, an "A" safety grade by Leapfrog and five stars from the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Designated a Level I Regional Trauma Center by the American College of Surgeons and a Level II by the state, Morristown is a Magnet Hospital for Excellence in Nursing Service, the highest level of recognition by the American Nurses Credentialing Center for facilities that provide acute care services. The Gagnon Cardiovascular Institute offers patients a complete spectrum of heart and vascular care, home to the largest cardiac surgery program in the state. The Carol G. Simon Cancer Center is the only program in the state to receive the 2016 Outstanding Achievement Award from the American College of Surgeons Commission on Cancer. *************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
