Hagedorn Psychiatric Hospital, located at 200 Sanatorium Road, Glen Gardner, NJ, was a state-run mental health facility. It was named after Senator Garret W. Hagedorn and specialized in providing psychiatric care and treatment for adult patients with mental illnesses. The hospital aimed to offer a supportive environment for recovery and rehabilitation through various therapeutic services. However, the facility was officially closed in 2012 as part of a state decision to consolidate services and reduce costs. The closure led to the redistribution of patients to other institutions and community-based programs to ensure continued care. The site has since been repurposed or remains unused for psychiatric services. The decision to close the hospital was met with some controversy, with concerns raised about the state’s capacity to handle mental health needs effectively after the closure.
