The closure of Crozer-Chester Medical Center resulted in nearly 2,700 workers losing their jobs, leaving a huge void and increasing pressure on emergency medical services in Delaware County.
The state and county are also offering resources to help employees find new jobs. The Crozer Transition Center, located on the first floor of the Chester Police Department, opened this week. The center helps people update their resumes, file for unemployment and secure medical insurance.
