Accessibility with Wheelchair Van Transportation Services
Non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT) includes transportation services for patients that face circumstances that limit their access to transportation to their appointments. Different from ambulance transportation, NEMT focuses more on aspects such as regular doctor visits and procedures, instead of catering to urgent situations.
Why NEMT?
Chicago in itself is the third most populated city in the United States, and at any given time there are tens of thousands of individuals that need to get to their appointments. Wheelchair Accessible Transportation is even more difficult for friends/family to accommodate. While some might have a family member or friend to help out, many do not.
Even when a family member can occasionally provide a ride here and there, it can be difficult when they are not available, especially when recurring appointments are part of their care plan. Patients and medical care managers trust BriteLift for getting patients where they need to be.
