About Me

Dr. Bauman has been a faculty member at Hunterdon Medical Center Family Practice Residency Program for over 36 years; a clinical professor of Family Medicine at Rutgers-RWJ and was the Medical Director of Hunterdon Hospice for 18 years.

She received her undergraduate education at Lafayette College, her medical degree from the University of Pennsylvania, and her post-graduate training in family medicine from Hunterdon Medical Center. Board-certified in family medicine, geriatrics, and palliative medicine, she has a certificate in bioethics from Columbia University. Licensed in NJ and PA, she is the past chair of the Biomedical Ethics Committee of the Medical Society of NJ and the hospital’s ethics committee. She co-coordinates the ethics and palliative care curriculum for the residency.

In January 2007, she became the founding director of the Palliative Care Service for Hunterdon Medical Center. In November 2007, she was named Hospice Physician of the Year for the State of New Jersey by the New Jersey Hospice and Palliative Care Organization. In 2020, she became the founding director of the HMC Hospice and Palliative Medicine Fellowship.

She was drawn to family medicine for its holistic approach to patients in the context of their family and community and practiced full-spectrum family medicine including obstetrics for over 20 years. While she continues to practice family medicine and precept residents, she has found a passion for improving end-of-life care. In addition to her clinical activities in hospice and palliative care, she runs the hospice rotation for third-year residents and offers a palliative medicine elective.

Her outside interests include visiting National Parks with her grandchildren, traveling internationally, and enjoying cultural events with her husband, Ralph Slaght, Ph.D., philosophy professor emeritus at Lafayette College, and chef extraordinaire.
