University Hospital’ s Shane Froebel on how digital enablement, infrastructure modernisation and strong partnerships are transforming patient care in NJ
As New Jersey’ s only public, academic medical centre, University Hospital serves a diverse and often underserved urban population while also acting as a Level 1 Trauma Centre and principal teaching hospital for several Rutgers institutions. It is one of the only hospitals in the state to be awarded Gold Plus recognition by the American Heart Association and the American Stroke Association for Heart Failure and Stroke. The hospital maintains 24-hour in-house coverage by general surgeons and prompt availability of care in specialties such as orthopedic surgery, neurosurgery, internal medicine, plastic surgery and pediatrics.
To continue its exceptional quality of care, University Hospital’ s Vice President of Enterprise Infrastructure, Shane Froebel, is leading the institution’ s digital enablement journey. Shane sits at the intersection of healthcare and technology, propelling the facility’ s quality of care for both patients and practitioners.
“ Like all hospitals, our primary goal is to provide exceptional care,” Shane explains.“ But also, as a safety net hospital, we take great pride in caring for people who have challenges accessing high quality healthcare.
