Plainfield, the densely populated "Queen City" of central New Jersey, no longer has a full inpatient hospital: the former Muhlenberg Regional Medical Center closed its inpatient services in 2008, and the site now operates as the JFK Muhlenberg satellite emergency department under Hackensack Meridian Health. Plainfield patients who need to be admitted are routinely transported out of town — most often to JFK University Medical Center in Edison or to RWJ University Hospital Rahway. That makes Plainfield a strong stretcher-transport community, and Delta Medical Transportation provides safe, scheduled lie-flat transport for residents who cannot sit upright.
Our stretcher vehicles are oxygen-ready and staffed by personnel trained to move and secure patients who must travel lying flat. We coordinate stretcher transfers from the Muhlenberg satellite ED to a full hospital when a patient needs admission, discharges home from JFK University Medical Center and RWJ Rahway, transfers to and from Plainfield's skilled-nursing and rehabilitation facilities, and recurring stretcher transport for dialysis patients — including those who attend the DaVita center at the Muhlenberg campus — who can no longer ride seated.

Plainfield patients needing admission are transported to JFK University Medical Center in Edison or RWJ University Hospital Rahway, and we provide stretcher transport for those trips.
Can you transport a patient from the Muhlenberg ED to a full hospital?
Yes. When a Plainfield patient at the Muhlenberg satellite ED needs to be admitted, we provide stretcher transfer to JFK University Medical Center in Edison or another full hospital, coordinating with the medical team.
