Brandywine Hospital in Coatesville, approx. 40 minutes from Lancaster, is not a teaching facility, but is a Trauma Center.

I assume you already looked into York Hospital? Another Philly suburb teaching facility is Abington Memorial Hospital.

Actually, I just checked their website, and it no longer mentions Trauma Center status. Perhaps that has changed. What about Harrisburg area hospitals?
