If you take a look at the County Health Rankings you will see that Morris County ranks 242 out of 244 in overall health. Morris County lacks recreational facilities, has a doctor : patient ratio of 1"6300, lacks access to nutritious food, lacks f quality childcare facilities, and has a high poverty rate among other social determinants. Our nearest hospital is Titus Regional Center which is 24 miles away. We believe a medical campus will not only solve some of these problems but also attract other businesses and jobs to our area that will influence other economic multipliers as well.
