When Americans need medical care (whether to treat an illness, diagnosis symptoms, fix a malfunction or deliver a baby), we expect the finest knowledge, equipment and understanding attitudes whether we’re located in a large metropolis or a rural locale. Wayne Memorial Hospital delivers on this expectation with its 95-bed acute care facility.

Specialties include: addiction counseling, cardiology, dermatology, emergency medicine, geriatrics, gastroenterology, hematology, nephrology, neurology, midwifery, obstetrics/gynecology, otolaryngology, pain management, pediatrics, psychotherapy, pulmonology and urology.

Additionally, Wayne Memorial Hospital supports an assisted living facility, skilled long-term nursing homes, a behavioral health program, a home health program and birthing suites that feature hydrotherapy equipment. Each department strives to work with patients one-on-one with educational needs, whether that’s to pass along new treatments for diseases or to assist patients in caring for their health under various circumstances.

And as part of that hometown feel patients crave, the hospital relies on volunteers to provide the special touches — like greeting visitors and family, escorting patients through the halls, distributing mail and circulating a book cart. It’s all part of the facility’s mission statement: to create a healthy community by providing a complete range of the highest quality services.

Other hospitals that are accessible to the area include:

• Community Medical Center

• Moses Taylor Hospital

• Mercy Hospital-Scranton

• Marion Community Hospital
