NEMT · Non Emergency Medical Transportation
Rides to their appointments, without depending on anyone
Scheduled rides for people who need to get to their medical appointments and health services. It is not an emergency service.
What it is
Non emergency medical transportation, known as NEMT, takes the person to appointments and health services on a scheduled basis.
It is not necessarily an ambulance. It can include vehicles adapted for older adults, for wheelchair users or for people with limited mobility.
It is a planned ride with assistance. If the situation is an emergency, you call 911.
