🌱 September is National Fruits & Veggies Month! 🥦🍎

At Saint James Health, we believe that good health begins with access to nutritious food. That’s why we’re proud to offer our Food Farmacy program in partnership with RWJ Newark Beth Israel Hospital and the Community Food Bank of New Jersey.

Through Food Farmacy, we provide food pantry services to both our patients and community members. Because without access to healthy food, it’s impossible to truly improve health outcomes. 💚

At SJH, we strive to care for the whole person—mind and body. This month, we celebrate the power of fruits and vegetables in building stronger, healthier lives.

We are conveniently located in 4 locations.
