NEMT Services in Wildwood

Wildwood is a shore resort city situated on the Five Mile Island barrier strip at the southern end of Cape May County, encompassing Wildwood, North Wildwood, and Wildwood Crest. The city is famous for its historic Doo Wop architecture, its massive free beaches, and the Wildwood Boardwalk — one of the longest in the world. While the summer population swells dramatically with tourists, the year-round resident population of approximately 5,000 represents a community with significant healthcare needs. Many permanent residents are low-income individuals and families who have built their lives in this working-class shore town, and Medicaid enrollment rates are considerably higher than the Cape May County average.

Cape Regional Medical Center in Cape May Court House is the primary hospital for Wildwood residents, located approximately 15 minutes from the island via the Rio Grande Avenue bridge. The Cape May County Medical Center campus provides emergency services, outpatient care, and a range of specialty programs accessible to island residents. For more advanced care including complex cardiovascular procedures, neurosurgery, or cancer treatment, patients are typically referred to AtlantiCare Regional Medical Center in Atlantic City or to Cooper University Hospital in Camden. Delta Medical Transportation handles all these transport routes, ensuring Wildwood residents can access the full spectrum of healthcare regardless of distance.

The off-season period from October through April presents unique transportation challenges for Wildwood residents. Seasonal businesses close, public transit options are reduced, and the island's elderly and disabled residents face particular difficulty reaching their medical appointments. Our NEMT service operates year-round with the same reliability in February as in July — unaffected by seasonal variations. Whether a Wildwood patient needs weekly dialysis transportation to a mainland center, post-surgical follow-up rides, or transport to an oncologist in Atlantic City, Delta Medical Transportation provides consistent, professional service throughout the year.
