Non-Emergency Medical Transportation in Golden, CO
Safe, reliable rides for seniors and individuals with disabilities.
Why Choose Us
Golden sits at the base of the foothills, and most of the healthcare facilities its residents depend on are east in Lakewood and Wheat Ridge. Whether it's a visit to CommonSpirit St. Anthony Hospital, a dialysis session at Colorado Kidney Care in Lakewood, or a specialist appointment at the UCHealth campus in Aurora, getting there along US-6 or CO-58 is tough for anyone who can't drive. We provide professional, door-to-door medical transportation across Golden and Jefferson County for dialysis, hospital visits, specialist care, and the everyday rides that keep life on track — like church on Washington Avenue or lunch with the grandkids.
Every ride begins and ends at your front door. Our drivers walk you to the vehicle, make sure you're comfortable, and stay with you from pickup to drop-off. When your appointment wraps up, they're already there. It's attentive, personal care — the kind you'd arrange for your own parent — because the person riding with us is the person your family trusts us with most.
On-Time, Every Time
We know medical appointments can't wait. Our providers prioritize punctuality so you never miss a treatment.

Testimonials
They drove me home after a colonoscopy when my regular ride fell through last minute. Showed up in twenty minutes and got me home safely. Lifesaver is the right word.

My father needs transportation to his support group meetings twice a week. The drivers are discreet and respectful. He says the rides are the easy part of his week now.
– Marie G.
I transferred from my wheelchair to a seat for the first time with a transport driver's help. He knew exactly how to assist without overstepping. Professional, safe, and dignified. Truly impressive.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I book a ride?
Reach our team directly at 877-369-5457, or use the "Book a Ride" option right here on our site. Giving us a day or two of advance notice helps us plan the best route, but we do our best to fit in same-day requests when vehicles are open in the Golden 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 my ride?
Booking a day or two ahead works best. For recurring needs like dialysis, we'll set up a standing schedule so you're covered weekly. Since most Golden riders travel to facilities in Lakewood or Wheat Ridge, allow extra lead time when I-70 congestion picks up, especially on weekends with ski traffic.
Do your vehicles accommodate wheelchairs?
Absolutely — let us know during booking that you'll need wheelchair access. Our fleet includes vans fitted with ramps and locking tie-downs built for manual chairs, powered chairs, and scooters alike. We'll match the right vehicle to your needs so your ride is set from the start.
Can a family member ride along?
Yes — a family member or caregiver is welcome to ride along at no extra charge on most trips. Just let us know when you're booking so the driver is expecting them.

What is NEMT?
Non-Emergency Medical Transportation, or NEMT, is a professional ride service designed for people who need safe, dependable transportation to healthcare appointments but don't require an ambulance or emergency medical response.
It's built for seniors who no longer drive, people living with disabilities, and anyone whose health makes it difficult to get behind the wheel. NEMT vehicles include wheelchair-accessible vans with ramps and tie-downs, stretcher transport for riders who need to remain lying down, and standard cars with drivers trained in hands-on walking support.
The majority of NEMT rides cover recurring appointments — dialysis sessions three times a week, radiation cycles, physical therapy, regular check-ups — along with one-time needs like post-surgery pickups and hospital discharge rides. The purpose is simple: keep people connected to the care that helps them stay healthy and independent.
Powered by Modern Technology
Golden rides are powered by Duet, a trusted NEMT software platform. That means real-time vehicle tracking, dependable scheduling, and direct communication with your driver from the moment you book until you're home.
More Than a Ride
When a family calls us, they're deciding who to trust with someone they care about deeply. We take that seriously. Our drivers treat every rider the way they'd treat their own family — with patience, attention, and genuine warmth. From booking to drop-off, the ride should feel as safe as if a family member were behind the wheel.
