History

Located in one of the largest and fastest growing counties in the state Southern Ocean Medical Center has become a vibrant healthcare resource to our residents and visitors

Following are some key moments from our history which speak to our development and establishment as a destination of choice for health care in the region

In the early 1970s a small group of committed residents on Long Beach Island led by the late James Noble shared a dream to build a hospital

In 1972 after many years of fundraising Southern Ocean County Hospital was opened in August under the sponsorship of Burlington Memorial with 54 beds and 17 physicians

In 1980 the James Noble Pavilion was constructed adding a second floor with an additional 40 beds making Southern Ocean County Hospital eligible to apply for an independent operating license

Today Southern Ocean Medical Center is a 176bed center for medical excellence featuring 230 physicians representing over 40 specialties and over 1200 skilled healthcare professionals
