Wheelchair Van Transport in Pennsauken, NJ

Wheelchair-Accessible Transportation in Pennsauken

Pennsauken has no hospital inside its own borders, so nearly every hospital trip starts with a drive out of the township. The nearest full-service campuses are both in Camden: Cooper University Hospital at One Cooper Plaza, a Level I trauma center, reached by following US 30 out of Airport Circle onto Admiral Wilson Boulevard; and Virtua Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital at 1600 Haddon Avenue, which handles cardiac and neurosurgical care and runs South Jersey's only kidney, liver and pancreas transplant program. Transplant work in particular is never one appointment — it is workups, then labs, then follow-ups, month after month, which is why Pennsauken families end up needing a standing ride rather than a one-off. Our vans load at the door at both campuses, and a rider never has to transfer out of their own wheelchair.

Dialysis is the standing appointment that shapes most wheelchair-van schedules here, and Pennsauken has two outpatient units with township addresses. DaVita Merchantville Dialysis sits at 5000 North Crescent Boulevard — a Pennsauken address despite the name, on the stretch of US 130 that runs through the township as Crescent Boulevard — and offers in-center hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis. DaVita Pennsauken Dialysis Center at 7024 Kaighn Avenue adds in-center self-care hemodialysis to that mix. A dialysis rider is not making one trip; they are making the same trip several times a week for years, so we set a recurring block against a fixed chair time instead of treating each leg as a fresh booking. Riverfront Rehabilitation & Healthcare Center on North Park Drive generates the other steady pattern: residents leaving for specialist appointments and returning the same afternoon.

Pennsauken is a township of roughly 37,000 people pressed against two lines that complicate a medical trip. Route 90 crosses the township and ends at the Betsy Ross Bridge, so a Philadelphia appointment sits on the far side of a tolled river crossing and a state line — we make that trip. On the inland side, Pennsauken runs up against Burlington County at Palmyra, Cinnaminson and Maple Shade, which can put a rider's hospital and their specialist in two different counties a short drive apart. Delta is licensed statewide and dispatches across all 21 New Jersey counties, so a Burlington County clinic and a Camden County hospital are the same booking to us. NJ FamilyCare members should book through ModivCare at 1-866-527-9933 at least two business days ahead; Original Medicare does not cover routine non-emergency rides.

Every trip is quoted individually — distance, whether you need a return leg, stairs at either address, and the time of day all matter.

If a Pennsauken patient cannot sit upright for the journey, a wheelchair van is the wrong vehicle and we will arrange stretcher transport instead.
