Our service

What We Do

Riders are going to treatment, coming home from a hospital stay, or moving between facilities. Reliable transportation helps them keep dialysis, therapy and medical appointments.

Rides are arranged by the rider, a family member or caregiver, or a discharge planner or facility coordinator. All reach the same Dispatch team.

Trips we arrange

  • Medical appointments

    Specialist visits, imaging, therapy and post-operative follow-ups.

  • Hospital discharges

    Transport home or to a receiving facility once discharge is cleared.

  • Facility-to-facility transfers

    Hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, rehabilitation centers and residential care.

  • Recurring and standing trips

    Repeating schedules such as dialysis, held as a standing arrangement.

  • Health-plan trips

    Trips arranged under a member’s health-plan transportation benefit.

  • Private pay

    Trips arranged directly by a rider, a family member or a facility.

On the day

What a Rider Can Expect

Here’s what riders can generally expect before, during, and after a trip.

Questions on the day

For a delay, a changed address, or a rider who cannot travel, call Dispatch at (909) 892-8383. Wait time and cancellation terms vary by trip and payer.

Read the cancellation policy
  1. Before the day

    Dispatch confirms the service level, addresses, appointment time, mobility equipment and whether a caregiver is coming. A request is not a scheduled trip until Dispatch confirms it.

  2. The pickup window

    Trips are scheduled against a pickup window rather than an exact minute. The window is confirmed when the trip is scheduled.

  3. Arrival and boarding

    Ambulatory riders receive boarding assistance as needed, and a folded walker or cane can travel with them. Wheelchair riders board by ramp or lift and stay in their own chair.

  4. Securement

    For wheelchair trips, the chair is secured and the rider is belted before the vehicle moves.

  5. Drop-off

    Assistance at drop-off depends on the service level arranged for the trip and on what the destination allows.

  6. The return trip

    If a return trip is scheduled, it is arranged when the ride is requested, or by calling Dispatch. Call Dispatch if the appointment runs long or finishes early.
