Quick answer

What Does NEMT Mean for an Easton Passenger?

Non-emergency medical transportation is a scheduled ride for a medically stable person who needs transportation support but does not need emergency ambulance care. It can connect an Easton residence, rural Talbot County home, senior community, dialysis center, rehabilitation program, medical office, hospital campus or another approved healthcare destination.

Palmer coordinates the ride around passenger mobility, pickup access, appointment or discharge timing, destination requirements and the level of assistance requested.

Direct answer: use scheduled NEMT when the passenger is stable and the trip can be planned. Call 911 when the condition is urgent, rapidly changing or potentially life-threatening.
