Passaic County is Delta Medical Transportation's home county — we're based in Totowa — and it's a county of two halves: the dense urban south of Paterson, Passaic, and Clifton, and the suburban north around Wayne and Pompton Plains. St. Joseph's University Medical Center in Paterson anchors local care, and a large share of county residents rely on Medicaid-covered NEMT to reach dialysis, specialists, and hospital appointments. This guide covers the county's facilities and how to arrange transport to them.
From our Totowa base, Passaic County is our fastest-response service area. We provide wheelchair-accessible vans and non-emergency stretcher transport across Paterson, Clifton, Passaic, Wayne, Hawthorne, and the rest of the county — coordinating Medicaid rides through the state broker and offering private-pay options when needed.
Medical corridors: St. Joseph's anchors Paterson off Route 19 and I-80; Route 23 connects the Wayne and Pompton Plains suburban facilities. The county splits between a dense urban south and a suburban north.
