Laboratory Services

The Laboratory performs over 1.2 million tests procedures annually utilizing various technologies which include:

• Automation & robotics
• Flow cytometry
• DNA probe technology
• Report imaging
• Electronic cross matching

The Lab at Jersey Shore University Medical Center is located on the hospital’s campus in HOPE Tower – an outpatient facility which was built with patient experience in mind. Patients requiring testing can enjoy our complimentary valet parking at the entrance of HOPE tower or complimentary parking in the HOPE Tower garage, located adjacent to the building and connected through an interior hallway.

The medical center now set its sights on becoming the recognized regional leader in a number of tertiary services and Graduate Medical Education Programs. The Florence M. Cook School of Medical Laboratory Science has prepared more than four hundred professionals since its beginning in 1947.

Employing over ninety professionals, the Laboratory functions as the “Core” laboratory for Hackensack Meridian Health. Testing is performed in the areas of histology, cytology, special chemistry, and immunochemistry for our sister hospitals.  In addition, the Laboratory operates an Outreach program which provides testing for physician offices, nursing homes, assisted living facilities, and performs phlebotomy in patient’s homes.
