This season, let’s dive into a topic close to our hearts — ensuring the safety and well-being of our vulnerable patients, especially when it comes to transportation in the vibrant city of Phoenix.
In this blog, we’ll dive into the crucial role that wheelchair transportation services play in the lives of those in Arizona’s disabled communities, and the challenges these individuals face.
You see, for disabled residents and those depending on ALFs, getting around can be a real challenge. They need accessible transportation for healthcare, social activities, and connecting with their community.
Unlike conventional medical transportation, you can use NEMT for various non-emergency situations such as doctor’s appointments, therapy sessions, treatments, and many other needs. You can even utilize it for a trip to the grocery store, leisure activities, and visiting family and friends!
Non-Emergency Medical Transportation (NEMT) Service companies, like HealthLift, offer wheelchair-accessible rides for patients, while also providing transportation for any reason an individual that uses a wheelchair might need to get around.
