Bergen County Nursing Home Coronavirus Cases, Deaths Released

There are 48 nursing homes in Bergen County that have reported at least one patient's death due to the coronavirus, state officials said.

BERGEN COUNTY, NJ — Fifty six nursing care facilities in Bergen County have had at least one patient who died of complications from the new coronavirus, and 15 facilities have had more than 50 positive cases of the virus.

Those are some of the numbers revealed Monday when the state Department of Health released information on all nursing facilities in New Jersey who have reported at least one case of the coronavirus.

The listing comes after weeks of requests for the information and repeated warnings from the state to the owners and managers of long-term care facilities about their need to report that information to patients, employees and patients' families, Health Commissioner Judith Persichilli said Monday.

It's unclear whether the state's data represents both the patients and staff at Bergen County nursing homes or solely residents.

Persichilli said the nursing home data is self-reported and “that’s what was posted.” She’s aware discrepancies could exist in the numbers, however, and said the state is “giving them an opportunity to clean up the data.” She called the numbers “directionally correct.”
