If you’re new to non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT), preparing for your first ride can seem daunting. However, with a few simple steps, you can ensure a smooth and stress-free experience. Here’s a guide to help you get ready for your first NEMT journey.

Start by confirming your appointment details with the transportation provider. Ensure you have the correct time, pick-up location, and any specific instructions. For instance, if your ride is with Global Transportation Service, verify the details directly with them to avoid any last-minute confusion. Double-check if you need to bring any documents or medical information, as this can streamline the process and ensure all your needs are met.

When preparing for your ride, dress comfortably and bring any necessary items with you. These might include medications, a water bottle, or a personal item that helps you feel at ease. If you have mobility issues or specific needs, inform the provider ahead of time. This allows them to make necessary arrangements, such as providing a wheelchair or extra assistance during your journey.

Letting a family member or friend know your transportation details is also a good practice. They can act as a point of contact in case of any changes or emergencies. Upon the arrival of your ride, confirm the driver’s identity and ensure they are aware of your destination.
