Non-Emergency Medical Transportation in Nocatee, FL
Safe, reliable rides for seniors and individuals with disabilities.
Why Choose Us
Nocatee is a master-planned community spread across northern St. Johns County, with villages like Del Webb Ponte Vedra, Twenty Mile, and Coastal Oaks separated by wide stretches of Nocatee Parkway and Crosswater Parkway. Routine care happens close to home at Baptist HealthPlace at Nocatee and the Baptist AgeWell Center for Health, but specialty visits mean a 20 to 45-minute trip up US-1 or I-95 to Baptist Medical Center South, Mayo Clinic, or Ascension St. Vincent's Southside. We provide door-to-door non-emergency medical transportation throughout Nocatee so dialysis sessions, specialist appointments, and the everyday rides that keep life moving never depend on a favor or a rush-hour gamble.
Every ride begins at your front door — whether that door sits in Greenleaf Village, Riverwood, or one of Del Webb's quiet courts. Our driver greets you, walks you to the vehicle, and makes sure you're comfortable before pulling away. When the appointment ends, we're already there, waiting at the entrance. It's the kind of attention you'd want for your own parent — patient, prompt, and grounded in trust.

They picked me up after a same-day procedure and the whole experience was seamless. From booking to the actual ride, everything was straightforward and stress-free.
– Carol T.
My cousin has MS and needs reliable transport to her neurologist. The drivers understand her energy levels vary day to day and always adjust their pace. Compassionate and dependable.
– Tina V.
First time using wheelchair-accessible transport and the driver sensed my nervousness. He explained every step before doing it — ramp angle, tie-down placement, how the ride would feel. I felt informed and safe.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I book a ride?
Call 877-369-5457 to talk to a person, or tap the "Book a Ride" button on this page to reserve online. Plan on 24 to 48 hours of notice for non-urgent rides, though same-day pickups are often possible when a vehicle is open near your village.
Do you accept Medicaid, Medicare or other health insurance?
We take credit card or cash payment if you book directly with us. For payment using health plans or 3rd party-payers, you will need to contact these parties directly to secure authorization of the trips and many of them may require you to book directly through them.
How far in advance should I schedule my ride?
A day or two of lead time covers most routine appointments. Trips north to Jacksonville or south to St. Augustine can run 20 to 45 minutes, so add extra notice for early-morning dialysis or any Mayo Clinic visit when I-95 rush hour stretches the drive.
Do your vehicles accommodate wheelchairs?
Yes. Flag the wheelchair on the booking and an accessible van gets dispatched to your village. Every one of them is fitted with a properly rated ramp and full securement straps, and they handle manual chairs, power chairs, and most scooters. Let us know which you use so we can confirm equipment ahead of pickup.
Can a family member ride along?
Yes — a relative, caregiver, or close friend is welcome to come along, and in most cases there's no additional fee for the second seat. Just flag the extra passenger when you reserve so the driver knows who to expect at pickup and the seating is ready.

What is NEMT?
NEMT is short for Non-Emergency Medical Transportation — the planned rides that get people to and from medical care when an ambulance isn't warranted but driving themselves isn't a safe option either.
The riders who lean on it are typically retirees who've parked the car, adults living with a long-term disability, or anyone whose condition makes time behind the wheel risky. Vehicles are matched to the rider — wheelchair-accessible vans, stretcher units for those who can't sit upright, and standard cars staffed by drivers trained in hands-on walking support.
Most of these rides repeat on a calendar — three dialysis mornings a week, oncology cycles, cardiac rehab, weekly physical therapy — paired with one-off trips home from outpatient surgery or a hospital discharge. The aim stays the same: keeping the appointment from becoming the barrier, so people hold their health and independence longer.
Powered by Modern Technology
Every Nocatee ride is coordinated through Duet, a leading NEMT software platform. Families get live vehicle tracking, dependable pickup windows, and direct communication between rider and driver from booking through drop-off.
More Than a Ride
Letting someone else drive a parent or a spouse to an appointment is a quiet leap of faith. We try to earn that on every single ride. From the phone call to the moment your loved one walks back through their own front door, our work is shaped by one rule: never let a family wait at home wondering whether the ride was a good one.
