NEMT Services in Burlington City

Burlington City carries remarkable historical significance as one of New Jersey's original colonial settlements, founded in 1677 on the eastern bank of the Delaware River. Today, the city's approximately 10,000 residents live in a mix of historic rowhouses, Victorian-era homes, and mid-century residential neighborhoods stretching from the waterfront to the suburban fringe. The community has a diverse socioeconomic profile, with pockets of low-income households that rely on Medicaid-funded healthcare and therefore need reliable non-emergency medical transportation. Delta Medical Transportation fills this gap, providing professional NEMT that connects Burlington City residents to the full network of Burlington County healthcare providers.

The nearest major hospital to Burlington City is Virtua Voorhees Hospital, accessible via the Burlington-Mount Holly corridor. For more specialized care, Cooper University Hospital in Camden — approximately 20 miles south — serves as the region's leading academic medical center with tertiary and quaternary services. Burlington City residents who need cardiac surgery, neurosurgery, or complex oncology care are regularly referred to Cooper, and our vehicles handle these longer-distance transports safely and comfortably. We accommodate patients in wheelchair vans with hydraulic lifts, full stretcher transport, and standard ambulatory transport depending on each patient's medical needs.

Burlington City's position on the Delaware River and its historic street layout — including High Street, Broad Street, and Union Street — are well known to our drivers. The city lacks a robust public transit network for medical trips, making NEMT a lifeline for elderly residents, dialysis patients requiring three trips per week, and individuals recovering from surgery who cannot safely operate a vehicle. Our scheduling team works with patients and caregivers to set up recurring transport plans that provide consistency and reliability, reducing the stress of coordinating complex medical appointment schedules.
