What Is Rehabilitation & Physical Therapy Transportation?
Rehabilitation and physical therapy transportation is scheduled non-emergency medical transportation to and from rehabilitation centers, therapy clinics and recovery-related appointments. It may be used for physical therapy, occupational therapy, post-surgical rehabilitation, mobility training and other medically related recovery visits.
Some patients are early in recovery and need wheelchair or stretcher transportation. Others become more mobile over time and may later use ambulatory transportation. The transportation option should match the passenger’s current mobility needs rather than assuming every rehabilitation trip is the same.
Non Emergency Medical Ride focuses on the transportation portion of the trip. We do not provide physical therapy, rehabilitation treatment or emergency medical care.
Transportation Through Different Stages of Recovery
Transportation needs can change during recovery. The ride should reflect the patient’s mobility at the time of each appointment.
Early Recovery or Limited Mobility
A patient may require stretcher transportation or a higher level of mobility support after surgery, illness or hospitalization.
Wheelchair-Based Recovery
Wheelchair-accessible transportation may fit patients who are attending therapy while continuing to use a wheelchair.
Returning to Ambulatory Travel
As mobility improves, some patients may transition to ambulatory transportation for rehabilitation and therapy visits.
