hospitals?? (Stroudsburg, Honesdale, Milford: moving to, health, parking)

[maryann1804]

Could some one tell me how many hospitals are in the milford, bushkill area?? We are thinking about moving to either one of those areas. My husband is a nurse and needs to have hospitals that are close by. If anyone has any input I would appreciate it.

I know there is a hospital in Honesdale..Wayne Memorial Hospital. I believe there is a hospital in Stroudsburg, which would be near Bushkill. We're also building in the area and hospital locations are a consideration. Don't want to be too far in case the need arises.

Having just bought property in Bushkill I checked it out too.
Here's the closest hospital I could find;

Directions to PMC

Pocono Medical Center is located approximately 1/4 mile from Exit 308 (formerly Exit 51) on Route 80.
Interstate 80 Eastbound/Westbound: Exit 308 (formerly Exit 51); at the end of the exit ramp, turn right. At the first traffic light, turn right onto East Brown Street.
The Hospital is on the left-hand side of East Brown Street. Visitor parking is across from the Hospital entrance on the right-hand side. PMC's Emergency Room parking entrance is just after the Hospital on the left-hand side of the street. Please follow signs to the Emergency Room.

Milford, PA is 8 miles to Bon Secours Community Hospital in Port Jervis, NY. That's your closest option in Milford, as Stroudsburg and Honesdale are about 35 miles away.

Bushkill is 14 miles to Stroudsburg, which appears to be the closest hospital location to there.
