Richmond, TX
Non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT) is a challenge for a lot of people across Richmond. The importance of accessible transportation is undervalued by planners and designers who don't know the struggle that individuals experiencing physical disability and health-related problems face each day.
Those who are bound to wheelchairs and on bed rest have a difficult time getting around in their daily lives, whether it’s for errands or more pressing matters like treatment sessions or hospital visits. It leaves them feeling disempowered, dependent and puts them at risk of being mishandled by inexperienced family members and friends, or others sharing public transport with them.
This is especially dangerous for individuals with compromised health and immunity, such as those undergoing chemotherapy, dialysis, radiology, or in recovery after surgical procedures. Also included in this group are elderly folk whose immune systems are weakened from years of illness and the process of aging.
Other people who have difficulty with mobility are those who are being discharged from hospitals and need to arrive at their destination with care, under careful monitoring and supervision—both of which are compromised when traveling with friends or family.
We work with the individuals mentioned above and others such as people in physical therapy for recovery purposes, which means their mobility is limited and excessive or unsafe transportation could hinder their progress.
Improper transportation, cramped vehicles, reckless driving, bumpy roads, traffic accidents or delayed timing can all cause individuals to miss their appointments or worse, affect their healing. They must be transported to and from visits and sessions with care.
