Try putting yourself in the shoes of an elderly who suffers from stroke and is wheelchair-bound, or to an athlete who has just gone through the knife for herniated lumbar disc and is tied to his bed, or to a child who breaks his leg after falling off a tree.
Each situation demands that you go see a doctor either for regular check-up, for medication or for simple monitoring. In most cases, medications are prescribed, which requires you to go to a pharmacy. In some instances, rehab is needed, which further compels you to go visit yet another place.
In short, you need to go somewhere — despite your predicament — because that’s the only way to get healed. The problem is, you can barely move or you can’t move at all. And imagine this: what if you are alone in your place? Horrible!
NEMT to the rescue
But take stock. You may be in a deep hole, but you are not hopeless.
There are lines of business that provide transportation support to clients, who are unable to go to places by themselves, like the examples we mentioned earlier. These businesses are called non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT) companies. They attend specifically to these cases, medical concerns that are not critical or emergency in nature.
These companies see to it that their clients can go to places they want to go to conveniently, comfortably and, most of all, safely. They do it door-to-door, from the pick-up point to the drop off point.
