DELAWARE COUNTY, PA − December 5, 2024 − This week marks a significant step forward for healthcare access in Delaware County. Christiana Care’s announcement of a new healthcare campus in Aston represents exactly the kind of responsible, community-focused healthcare investment our region desperately needs.
This new facility will provide crucial 24/7 emergency care services, with capabilities to handle everything from common injuries to life-threatening conditions like heart attacks and strokes. The addition of diagnostic services and a health center offering primary and specialty care will help fill the healthcare void that has affected our community for too long.
What’s particularly encouraging is Christiana Care’s commitment to developing services based on community needs, showing they understand that healthcare isn’t just about profits – it’s about people. The facility’s projected opening in the second half of 2026 gives our residents hope for a future where quality healthcare is accessible right in their neighborhood.
As the Delco Senate and House Delegation continues to fight against predatory healthcare practices that put profits over people, it’s refreshing to see healthcare providers like Christiana Care step up to serve our community. This is what responsible healthcare leadership looks like – bringing essential services back to where they’re needed most.
This investment in Aston, combined with Christiana Care’s existing services in our region, demonstrates their genuine commitment to the health and well-being of Delaware County residents. It’s a prime example of how we can rebuild and strengthen our community’s healthcare infrastructure when we have the right partners at the table.”
