Restore Muhlenberg Regional Medical Center In Plainfield, NJ
- Target:
- The City of Plainfield, New Jersey
- Region:
- United States of America
We are a coalition of the People's Organization for Progress(POP)/Restore Muhlenberg Coalition/Buy Muhlenberg.
We are an alliance of citizens who are very concerned about the devastating effects that the closing of Muhlenberg Regional Medical Center has on Plainfield, the surrounding 13 communities and over 200,000 people. We are worried about the rescue squads that are now saddled with longer travel distances and slower response times to medical emergencies. We are also very concerned about the additional burden placed on the other over-crowded area hospitals where medical care has been compromised.
Muhlenberg is an essential hospital that must be restored so please don't be afraid to share comments and personal experiences about the after-effects of Muhlenberg's closing when signing the petition.
We meet every Monday at 6:30PM at the Ducret School of Art, 1030 Central Ave, Plainfield, NJ 07060. All are welcome.
The coalition also has a Yahoo! groups listing. Please visit the website and add your name to the e-mail list: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SaveHospital/
We, the undersigned, request that the City of Plainfield hold public hearings on the impact of the closure of Muhlenberg Regional Medical Center (MRMC) in order to conduct a current needs assessment.
No needs assessment was conducted prior to the closure of MRMC. We believe that an analysis of the facts will lead to the restoration of MRMC as a full service acute care hospital.
