Barnert Hospital was a 236-bed hospital in Paterson, New Jersey that operated for 99 years. The hospital was a full service facility offering perinatal care, family care services and an outpatient infusion unit treating high risk pregnancies and hematology-oncology patients. Its operations were drastically scaled back in its last years of operation due to serious financial difficulties.

The hospital sought Chapter 11 Bankruptcy protection in August, 2007. The hospital initially intended to close on September 28, 2007 due to a lack of funds. However soon after the announcement both the State and Federal governments appropriated $3.5 million to keep the hospital open while a buyer was sought. Several groups attempted unsuccessfully to raise $35 million in order to purchase the facility and convert it into a multi-use specialty hospital. The bankruptcy court reviewed bids , however these plans did not materialize and the hospital announced its closure on February 1, 2008. [ [http://www.1010wins.com/pages/1584525.php?
