Healthcare Facilities Management Society of New Jersey (HFMSNJ)

Founded in 1949, we are the professional organization of healthcare facility managers of new Jersey. The managers back then recognized the sharing of knowledge and experience would benefit each member and the institutions they served. When we were formed, we were known as the “Executive Hospital Engineers of New Jersey”. The original members were predominately Executive Engineers from the boiler room, which is what they were called at that time. Later, the American Hospital Association reached the same conclusion: There should be an AHA affiliated organization of professional members. ASHE (American Society of Healthcare Engineers) was born and HFMSNJ became one of the first local chapters.
