“Atlantic Center for Research Atlantic Health System medical centers have an enduring research history, with primary areas focused on cardiology, oncology, neurology, and pediatric endocrinology and gastroenterology. Morristown and Overlook medical centers are often one of few hospitals selected to participate in groundbreaking clinical trials to treat different types of heart disease, advanced cancers, including women's cancers and melanoma skin cancer, and movement disorders such as Parkinson's disease. Since the opening of Goryeb Children's Hospital in 2002, specialized centers have also been involved in research activities to improve outcomes for children with blood disorders, lung disease, gastrointestinal disease, hormonal and metabolic disorders, and neurological conditions. In 2013, the Atlantic Center for Research launched a new website that provides information about open and enrolling clinical trials and research studies across Atlantic Health System medical centers. The tablet and smartphone-friendly website, atlantichealth.org/research, features a search tool that allows visitors to easily find trials based on disease area, keywords, and the name of the physician conducting the trial.

In addition, rotating residents are sent to Atlantic Health System from the following institutions: - Lenox Hill Hospital (Morristown Medical Center- Orthopedic Sports Medicine) - New York Presbyterian Hospital (Overlook Medical Center- Surgery) - Rutgers- New Jersey Medical School (Overlook Medical Center- Orthopedic Surgery) - Rutgers- Robert Wood Johnson (Overlook Medical Center- Colorectal Surgery) - Meadowlands Hospital (Morristown Medical Center - Radiology) - Meadowlands Hospital (Morristown Medical Center - Orthopedics) Atlantic Health System underwent a Clinical Learning Environment Review (CLER) by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) in November 2012, making us the 8th institution in the country to participate in this new type of survey which assesses sponsoring institutions in six focus areas: - Patient Safety - Quality Improvement - Transitions in Care - Supervision - Duty Hours, Fatigue Management and Mitigation - Professionalism A report was received from the ACGME in April 2013 which outlined areas on which to focus in the next 18 months, when the next survey will take place in early 2015. Since 2009, Atlantic Health System has been collaborating with Drew University to offer a certificate of Medical Humanities to medical residents. The three-year program yielded its first 12 graduates in May 2012. In 2014, another group of internal medicine and family medicine residents were conferred degrees. In 2014, a committee of Montclair State University and AHS educators has been developing a certificate course in Arts and Medicine. This six-course program is slated to begin enrolling students in the fall of 2015. Atlantic Health System also hosts several allied health certificate programs: 4,057 emergency medical technicians were trained through the EMT basic course, EMT refresher course, ACLS/PALS course, and continuing education units in 2014. A number of critical services that benefit the community are located within Atlantic Health System organization, rather than at an individual medical center. They include protection and security services/emergency management, ambulance and helicopter service, research and clinical trials, library services, and efforts to provide a sustainable, green environment of care. Protection and Security Services/Emergency Management Atlantic Health System's Protection and Security Services /Emergency Management Department is committed to providing a safe and secure working environment for staff, students, volunteers, patients and visitors. It also oversees Atlantic Health System's response to community emergencies. Protection and Security Services/Emergency Management is involved in many community planning committees. They include: - Business Executives for National Security (BENS) - Glen Ridge Local Emergency Committee - Metropolitan Medical Response System (MMRS) - Montclair Township Local Emergency Planning Committee - Morris County Bioterrorism Taskforce - Morris County Mass Immunization and Quarantine Committee - Morristown Local Emergency Planning Committee - New Jersey Hospital Association Education Subcommittee - New Jersey Hospital Association Emergency Preparedness Taskforce - New Jersey Hospital Association Equipment Subcommittee - NJ State Med Prep Committee - Table of Hope - Morristown Bethel BME Church: Feeding the Homeless - Governor's Domestic Security Preparedness Task Force - UASI Regional P”

“Atlantic Air One, a Eurocopter EC-135 twin turbine engine model designed to reduce noise and created specifically for medical transport, allows Atlantic Ambulance Corporation to provide the quickest transportation to Morristown Medical Center, a regional trauma center or to the closest appropriate facility. In addition to responding to trauma cases, Atlantic Air One also provides inter-hospital transport throughout Northern New Jersey. Patients who require specialized treatment for cardiac care, neuron emergencies, pediatrics or high-risk labor and delivery often are transferred to Morristown Medical Center from elsewhere in the state. The helicopter can travel as far as Boston or Baltimore to take patients to medical facilities with more specialized services. In 2014, Air One was dispatched 132 times for 911 calls and provided 213 inter-facility transports. Atlantic Air Two, a Eurocopter EC-135, began operating with Atlantic Health System in 2011. Atlantic Air Two is based in Cumberland County, New Jersey. Atlantic Health System is partnering with Cooper University Hospital in Camden to improve emergency medical service delivery to the area. Atlantic Air Two has two primary missions: inter-facility hospital patient transports, and functioning as the closest available Medevac helicopter responder to those areas of southern New Jersey requesting services. In 2014, Air Two was dispatched 138 times for 911 calls and provided 158 inter-facility transports. Atlantic Air Three, another Eurocopter EC-135, launched into the skies with Atlantic Health System in April 2013. Atlantic Air Three is based in Netcong, New Jersey and provides service to the residents of Sussex and Passaic Counties on the heels of Atlantic Health System's merger with Newton Medical Center in November 2011. Atlantic Air Three responds to medevac calls from the helipad located at the Mountain Creek Ski Resort in Vernon and transports patients from trauma scenes as well as between facilities. In 2014, Air Three was dispatched 124 times for 911 calls and provided 60 inter-facility transports. Atlantic Center for Research Atlantic Health System medical centers conduct research in a variety of clinical areas to bring patients in the community the most advanced treatment options. Clinical trials provide early access to investigational drugs, medical devices, and diagnostic techniques and help to identify new approaches to prevention. Currently, more than 450 clinical research studies are underway, led by dedicated physician investigators and clinical research teams in most specialties and supported by the organization's 70 research coordinators and research staff. These research programs have grown significantly over the past decade, most specifically within oncology, cardiology, neuroscience, pediatrics, internal medicine, nursing, orthopedics and rehabilitative medicine. The Atlantic Center for Research serves as a central point of contact for new and established clinical trial sponsors and investigators who are affiliated with Atlantic Health System medical centers, as well as for attending physicians interested in conducting clinical trials and physicians looking to refer patients to research studies. Led by a medical director and an administrative director under the auspices of a vice president experienced in clinical research and staffed by trained professionals, Atlantic Center for Research provides grants and contract management, budgeting, biostatistician support and a dedicated institutional review board. Staff at Atlantic Center for Research tracks each trial, streamlining enrollment, approvals, financial management, compliance and trial monitoring. The Atlantic Center for Research's in-depth training and education programs ensure that core competencies are maintained for safe and effective research. Its compliance policies and compliance education programs ensure that researchers qualify for funding that can help support next-generation breakthroughs. As”

“The Atlantic Health System librarians exhibited at the very well attended Careers in Healthcare Day held at Overlook Medical Center providing information about medical librarianship as a career choice. The AHS librarians also continue to reach out to area school nurses providing much needed library services. The Overlook Library continued to host eight young adults, 18 to 21 years old, from the Early Childhood Learning Center of New Jersey in Chatham, who gained work experience in the library from January through May and September through December 2014. The young people each spent two hours a week working in the library. In September 2014, the Summit Public Library hosted an exhibition of objects from the Overlook Archives. A Sustainable, Green Environment of Care Consumers nationwide are increasingly concerned with preserving our natural resources and so is Atlantic Health System. Our goal is to pursue recycling and energy savings to the fullest extent possible. From grassroots employee efforts to large-scale construction projects, we are doing our best to treat our environment with respect. For instance, the new and expanded Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Morristown Medical Center is certified as a Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) project by the U.S. Green Building Council. LEED-certified construction projects use materials and finishes with more natural or recycled fibers and more energy-efficient ventilation systems. Other instances of efforts to promote and practice sustainability include: - Certification by the Green Guide for Healthcare of Gagnon Cardiovascular Institute at Morristown Medical Center. - Go Baby Green parent education classes at Morristown Medical Center and Overlook Medical Center, which offer information about creating a non-toxic environment for baby. - The formation of a Go Green team, which initiates and reports on eco-friendly projects throughout our health care system. - Carpooling services and related incentives for our employees. - The use of Green Seal certified cleaning products by our environmental services departments. - Free monthly e-newsletters from Morristown Medical Center, Overlook Medical Center, and Goryeb Children's Hospital - My Atlantic Health News, an electronic publication”
