Notification of Hospitalization

        Hospitals are required to observe confidentiality (HIPA) and privacy laws and, so, are no longer able to inform parishes of admissions of parishioners.  It is now necessary for either the patient him/her self or a family member to notify the parish of his/her hospitalization.  Arrangements then can be made for the parish priest to visit the patient.

        It is not our practice to publish the names of the sick in our bulletin or announce them at Mass unless the patient or a family member as asked us or given us permission to do so.

        Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick will be administered upon request prior to a scheduled hospital admission or before any elective surgery.  Please call the rectory at 973-694-5700.

        This website will NOT publish the names of the sick UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.
