AtlantiCare employs more than 5,000 staff members and 600 physicians in nearly 70 locations.
The AtlantiCare Regional Medical Center consists of two hospitals:
- AtlantiCare Regional Medical Center, Atlantic City Campus in Atlantic City, NJ
- AtlantiCare Regional Medical Center Mainland Division in Pomona, NJ
The Mainland Campus, located on West Jimmie Leeds Road, opened in 1975. In 2005, AtlantiCare started a $35 million expansion project that included a new emergency department and the Roger B. Hansen Center for Childbirth.[http://www.pressofatlanticcity.com/business/atlanticare-breaks-ground-for-million-expansion-at-galloway-township-campus/article_732f392a-d7e5-5101-8bb9-0767cb5b7dd2.html Press of Atlantic City] In 2009, the Mainland campus opened a $20 million Cardiac Catheterization & Rhythm Center.[http://www.pressofatlanticcity.com/business/atlanticare-breaks-ground-for-million-expansion-at-galloway-township-campus/article_732f392a-d7e5-5101-8bb9-0767cb5b7dd2.html Press of Atlantic City] Recognizing that it serves as a resource of critical community infrastructure, when AtlantiCare expanded the hospital in 2007, it took protective measures by building Harmony Pavilion to withstand a category 3 hurricane.[http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/2011/08/officials_criticize_atlantic_c.html The Star-Ledger]
In 2014, The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) and AtlantiCare announced a partnership.
