Clara Maass Medical Center, a facility of RWJBarnabas Health officially celebrated 150 years of care and compassion since it was founded in 1869 as Newark German Hospital.

Since that time, what we now know as Clara Maass Medical Center has provided welcoming care for all types of people in all kinds of circumstances.

Almost from the day it opened, the administrators and medical staff have seized opportunities to expand and to provide more advanced healthcare to the community it serves, and we look forward to 150 more years of successful service.
