Access to Healthcare

Script for Calling Governor Shapiro and Legislators - Keep Delaware County Hospitals Open
  • Find your legislator here!

  • Call Governor Shapiro at 717-787-2500

​​​

​

Introduction:

Hi, my name is [Your Name], and I’m calling from the Movement of Immigrant Leaders in Pennsylvania MILPA for short to urge Governor Shapiro/[Your legislator] to prevent the closure of Crozer and Taylor Health hospitals in Delaware County. If Crozer and Taylor close, only Mercy Fitzgerald and Riddle Hospital will remain to serve over 570,000 residents.

​​​

Key Points to Mention:

​

1. Impact on Healthcare Access

Closing Crozer and Taylor Health would leave many residents without nearby healthcare, putting lives at risk and overwhelming the remaining hospitals.

​

2. Health and Safety:

Losing these hospitals creates dangerous gaps in emergency and routine care. Delaware County needs all its hospitals to maintain health and safety.

​

3. Economic and Job Impact: 

Hospitals are crucial to the local economy. Closing these hospitals would harm jobs and destabilize the community.​

 

Call to Action:  

Please take action to prevent the closure of these hospitals and ensure all Delaware County residents have access to necessary healthcare.​

​

Closing:

Thank you for your time and for protecting healthcare access in our community.
