Essex County Hospital Center is a specialized psychiatric facility serving adults age 18 and older who are experiencing acute mental health challenges. Committed to dignity, respect, and equity, no individual seeking admission is denied care based on race, gender, color, religion, national origin, ancestry, marital status, disability, sexual orientation, or ability to pay.

Using a comprehensive bio-psycho-social approach, the Center provides individualized, evidence-based treatment focused on stabilization, recovery, and overall wellness. Dedicated to supporting individuals with serious and persistent mental illness — as well as their families — Essex County Hospital Center promotes hope, resilience, and a path toward lasting recovery within the community.
