What is NEMT in Arbutus?

Non-emergency medical transportation in Arbutus is scheduled transportation for a passenger who needs help reaching healthcare but does not require emergency ambulance care.

A medical ride should be planned around more than an address. Palmer reviews the passenger’s mobility, pickup access, appointment time, destination entrance, companion needs and return-trip expectations before confirmation.

Planned healthcare trips: doctor visits, imaging, rehabilitation, dialysis, outpatient procedures and approved hospital pickups.
Mobility-aware coordination: wheelchair, stretcher, walker, stairs, ramps and elevator information should be shared early.
Non-emergency only: call 911 for life-threatening symptoms or immediate emergency care.
