Facilities

Recent additions to the facility have tripled the square footage to 225,000 square feet (20,900 m2), and the patient care setting was reconfigured to give it the feel of a much smaller institution. RCINJ provides a Resource and Learning Center, where patients and their families can review the latest information on advanced therapies and new clinical trials. RCINJ is physically connected by a sky bridge to RWJ University Hospital.

In January 2017, Steven K. Libutti, MD, FACS became the third permanent Director of RCINJ.
