What is stretcher transportation?

Stretcher transportation is scheduled, non-emergency transportation for a medically stable passenger who cannot safely travel seated in a standard vehicle or wheelchair. The passenger remains positioned on a stretcher or transport gurney during loading, travel, and unloading.

Easton’s Stretcher Transportation Provider

When a passenger cannot safely remain seated in a standard vehicle or wheelchair, planned stretcher transportation may provide an appropriate non-emergency travel option. Palmer Medical Transport coordinates stretcher van service for medically stable passengers traveling between Easton residences, hospitals, medical pavilions, rehabilitation centers, imaging locations, primary-care practices, skilled nursing facilities, senior communities, and approved regional destinations.

Easton trips may involve UM Shore Medical Center on South Washington Street, the Cadmus Lane medical pavilion, Idlewild Avenue rehabilitation and orthopedic services, Downtown properties, senior communities, rural Talbot County addresses, and longer routes toward Cambridge, Annapolis, Baltimore, or Washington, D.C. Before confirming service, we review passenger positioning, weight considerations, stairs, ramps, elevators, doorway width, driveway access, appointment or discharge timing, escort needs, pickup instructions, and whether the trip is one-way, round-trip, or a facility transfer.
