As a nurse at Jefferson Hospital in Washington Township, Stephens has cared for COVID-19 patients since the spring outbreak. Stephens works in the intensive care unit, so she usually sees people at the sickest time of the disease, she said.
During this time, the patients can t leave the unit or have their families at their bedsides. They also don t always do well, Stephens added. Getting the vaccine was an easy choice for me, she concluded.
Stephens was the first of 30 Jefferson Health New Jersey employees to take the vaccine Tuesday, at the hospital system s administrative building in Voorhees. The South Jersey-based system received the Moderna vaccine on Monday, according to Brian Sweeney, Jefferson New Jersey s president and COO.

The Gov. Phil Murphy who struck an agreement to revamp and expand the state s politically tainted corporate tax incentive program is not the same Murphy who waged war on the program a year ago.
Back then, those entrenched in the grassroots ranks of the New Jersey Democratic Party heralded Murphy as the new, progressive Moses who would lead their flock to the promised land of reform a land where taxpayer dollars are doled out by merit, not simply to those with political clout.
But by agreeing to a complicated, 219-page agreement that was approved Monday by both houses of the Legislature after less than a week of deliberation, Murphy instead led Democrats back to the old, familiar confines of the Trenton backroom.
