The New Jersey Antimicrobial Stewardship Recognition Program acknowledges health care facilities and physician practices that demonstrate they have met or exceeded minimum expectations for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Core Elements of Antimicrobial Stewardship.
On December 5, 2019, Cooper received recognition from the Department of Health acknowledging our work in improving the use of antimicrobial medications and satisfactory completion of Gold-Level, acute-care requirements for the 2019 Antimicrobial Stewardship Recognition Program.
