Stretcher Transportation in Weehawken, NJ

Non-Emergency Stretcher Transport in Weehawken

Weehawken is a small cliffside township at the New Jersey approach to the Lincoln Tunnel and the NY Waterway ferry terminal, with the Palisades grade splitting an upland residential section from the waterfront. It has no hospital of its own — the original North Hudson Hospital began here before relocating to North Bergen decades ago — so Weehawken residents are served by Palisades Medical Center in North Bergen, immediately to the north, and by Hoboken University Hospital, immediately to the south. Delta Medical Transportation provides safe, scheduled stretcher transport for Weehawken patients who cannot sit upright.

The heavy tunnel-approach traffic around Weehawken is a routing factor our drivers plan for, timing pickups and returns to keep each trip smooth. Our stretcher vehicles are oxygen-ready and staffed by personnel trained to move and secure patients who must travel lying flat. We coordinate stretcher discharges from the area hospitals, transfers to and from skilled-nursing and rehabilitation facilities in neighboring Union City and North Bergen, recurring stretcher transport for dialysis patients, and returns home for patients under family or home-health care.
