Non-Emergency Medical Transportation in Thornton, CO
Safe, reliable rides for seniors and individuals with disabilities.
Why Choose Us
Thornton stretches roughly 15 miles north to south across Adams County, and the distance between newer neighborhoods in the north and the medical facilities concentrated near I-25 in the south can make getting to an appointment a real challenge. Whether you're heading to HCA HealthONE Mountain Ridge for a hospital visit, a dialysis session at Colorado Kidney Care Thornton, or a specialist at CommonSpirit St. Anthony North Hospital in neighboring Westminster, we provide professional door-to-door transportation that gets you there safely and on time. We also handle rides to the Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora for specialty care, everyday errands, and anything else that keeps your life moving.
Our drivers arrive at your front door, help you to the vehicle, and make sure you're settled before heading out. At your appointment, they're either waiting or ready to return the moment you call. Every ride is handled with the attentiveness and patience you'd expect from someone caring for their own family — because that's exactly the standard we hold ourselves to.

Testimonials
Discharge day is stressful enough without transportation headaches. They eliminated that worry completely. On time, professional, compassionate. Everything a medical transport service should be.
– Susan R.
My mom has Alzheimer's and needs someone she can trust for her thrice-weekly rides. The drivers are gentle and patient with her confusion. They treat her with dignity every single time.
– Donna A.
I was nervous about the ramp in the rain, but the driver had it covered. He laid down a non-slip mat and guided me in carefully. No drama, no slipping, just professional service in any weather.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I book a ride?
You can reach us at 877-369-5457 or hit the "Book a Ride" button on this page. Giving us a day or two of notice for non-urgent visits lets us pair you with a nearby Thornton-area driver, though same-day availability is sometimes possible.
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?
We recommend booking 24-48 hours ahead, especially for trips from Eastlake or Todd Creek to HCA Mountain Ridge or facilities in Westminster — those drives can run 25-30 minutes without traffic. Recurring dialysis patients get a standing schedule so every session is covered automatically.
Do your vehicles accommodate wheelchairs?
Absolutely. Let us know when you schedule your ride and we'll send a wheelchair-accessible van with a ramp and secure tie-down system. We accommodate manual wheelchairs, power chairs, and mobility scooters — just tell us what you use and the right vehicle will be waiting.
Can a family member ride along?
Of course. A family member or caregiver can ride along on any trip, and there's typically no additional cost. Just mention it during booking so we assign a vehicle with enough room and your driver expects the extra passenger.

What is NEMT?
NEMT, short for Non-Emergency Medical Transportation, gives people a safe and reliable way to reach healthcare appointments when they don't need emergency care. It covers everything from dialysis sessions and hospital discharges to routine doctor visits and follow-up treatments.
The riders who rely on NEMT are typically seniors who've given up driving, people with disabilities, and those managing chronic conditions that make driving impractical. Vehicles include wheelchair-accessible vans with ramps and tie-downs, stretcher transport for patients who must remain lying down, and cars with drivers trained to provide walking assistance.
Recurring rides make up much of what NEMT handles — dialysis three times a week, physical therapy, radiation treatments, and regular checkups. One-time trips for post-surgery pickups or discharge transfers are equally routine. At its core, this service exists to make sure people can consistently reach the care that keeps them healthy.
Powered by Modern Technology
Behind every ride is Duet, a purpose-built NEMT software platform that gives you real-time vehicle tracking, reliable scheduling, and clear communication with your driver from booking through drop-off.
More Than a Ride
When a family trusts us with a ride for their parent, their spouse, or their neighbor, that trust shapes every decision we make. From the first phone call to the final drop-off at the front door, our goal stays the same: deliver a ride so dependable that worrying about it never crosses your mind.
