Non-Emergency Medical Transportation in Fernandina Beach, FL
Safe, reliable rides for seniors and individuals with disabilities.
Why Choose Us
Fernandina Beach sits on Amelia Island, and that island geography shapes nearly every medical trip. Local appointments often run to Baptist Medical Center Nassau on Lime Street or Baptist Primary Care on Sadler Road, while specialty care and tertiary services usually mean a 45-minute drive south on I-95 to facilities in Jacksonville. Add the bridge crossings on SR-200 during tourist season, and a routine ride takes real planning. We provide professional, door-to-door medical transportation across Fernandina Beach and Nassau County for dialysis sessions, hospital visits, doctor appointments, and the everyday rides that keep island life moving.
Every ride begins at your front door. Our drivers walk you to the vehicle, settle you in, and stay attentive from pickup to drop-off. When your appointment wraps up, we're already there waiting. It's the kind of care we'd want for our own families — patient, on time, and grounded in the trust families place in us when they hand over the person they love most.

Testimonials
Post-surgery transport shouldn't be this good, but here we are. On time, spotless vehicle, driver who actually cares. I've recommended them to everyone in my recovery group.
– Frank L.
I live far from my parents and can't drive them to their frequent medical visits. This service has been an absolute godsend. Reliable, affordable, and they treat my parents like family.
– Keith H.
My husband and I both use wheelchairs. They accommodated both of us in one vehicle for the same appointment. The drivers secured both chairs and we rode together comfortably. Wonderful service.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I book a ride?
The fastest way is to call 877-369-5457, or tap the "Book a Ride" button anywhere on the site. We recommend booking 24-48 hours ahead when you can, though same-day rides are sometimes possible depending on driver availability in your area.
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?
Local rides in Fernandina Beach usually need only 24 hours of notice. Trips off Amelia Island — especially south to Jacksonville hospitals during tourist season — work better with 48 to 72 hours, given bridge traffic and the longer drive. For ongoing dialysis or therapy, ask us about a standing weekly schedule.
What if I need a wheelchair-accessible vehicle?
Mention it at the time of booking and we'll dispatch the right vehicle. Our wheelchair-equipped vans come with ramps and full tie-down systems, and they accommodate manual chairs, power chairs, and mobility scooters. Every ride is matched to the equipment you actually use.
Can a family member or caregiver ride with me?
Yes — bringing a family member or caregiver along is welcomed at no added cost in most situations. Let us know during booking and we'll make sure the vehicle has the seating ready for your companion.

What is NEMT?
Non-Emergency Medical Transportation, or NEMT, is a professional ride service for people who need to reach medical care safely but don't require an ambulance. It sits between an emergency response and a ride from family or friends.
Most riders are seniors who no longer drive, adults with a disability, or anyone whose health makes driving unsafe. To match those needs, NEMT runs a mix of vehicles — wheelchair-accessible vans, stretcher-equipped transport, and standard sedans with drivers trained in hands-on walking assistance.
Some rides follow a steady weekly rhythm — dialysis sessions, cancer treatments, physical therapy, regular specialist visits. Others are one-time trips, like the ride home after outpatient surgery or a hospital discharge. The purpose stays the same: keeping people connected to the care that keeps them well.
Powered by Modern Technology
Every ride is coordinated through Duet, a purpose-built NEMT platform. Fernandina Beach riders get real-time vehicle tracking, locked-in scheduling, and steady communication between you and your driver from booking through arrival.
More Than a Ride
Booking a ride for a parent, spouse, or close friend is an act of trust, and we hold that trust seriously. From the booking call to the moment your loved one is back at their front door, everything we do is shaped by one promise — nobody riding with us, and nobody waiting on word, should spend that time worried.
