Non-Emergency Medical Transportation in Tamaya, FL
Safe, reliable rides for seniors and individuals with disabilities.
Why Choose Us
Tamaya is a master-planned community tucked between J. Turner Butler Boulevard and Hodges Boulevard, with active-adult neighborhoods like Vizcaya, Cordova, and Marbella drawing residents who want quiet streets, close access to the beaches, and proximity to some of Florida's best healthcare. Mayo Clinic Jacksonville sits just minutes away on San Pablo Road, and Baptist Medical Center Beaches is a short ride along the coast. We provide door-to-door non-emergency medical transportation for Tamaya residents heading to those campuses, to dialysis sessions, to specialist follow-ups, and to the everyday places that make life feel normal — Sunday service, the grandkids' birthday, a quick stop at St. Johns Town Center.
A ride with us begins at your front door. The driver greets you, walks you to the vehicle, and makes sure you're settled before pulling out. When the appointment wraps up, we're already there.

Testimonials
After three days in the hospital, all I wanted was a safe ride home. These folks delivered exactly that. The vehicle was spotless, the driver was kind, and I was home in no time.
– Thomas J.
I coordinate my grandmother's medical appointments from across the country. The drivers are always professional and I get updates after every ride. It's like having family there when I can't be.
– Gary M.
The driver locked my wheelchair in place, double-checked the straps, and asked if I was comfortable before moving an inch. That level of care told me everything I needed to know about this company.
– Marie S.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I book a ride?
The easiest way is to call 877-369-5457 and our team will walk you through the details. You can also tap the "Book a Ride" button on this site to get started online. For non-urgent trips, a day or two of notice works best, though same-day rides are 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?
Booking 24 to 48 hours ahead is ideal. Most Tamaya trips are short hops to Mayo Clinic Jacksonville or Baptist Medical Center Beaches, but JTB and I-295 rush-hour traffic can add 15 to 25 minutes — so build buffer into early-morning and late-afternoon visits. Recurring rides like dialysis go on a standing schedule.
What if I need a wheelchair-accessible vehicle?
Mention it at booking and we'll send a wheelchair-accessible van. Each one carries a ramp and proper tie-down hardware, and we work with manual chairs, power chairs, and mobility scooters. The right vehicle is matched to your trip from the start.
Can a family member or caregiver ride with me?
Yes — bringing along a family member or caregiver is welcome at no additional cost in most cases. Just flag it when you book so the driver knows to expect a second passenger.

What is NEMT?
Non-Emergency Medical Transportation, or NEMT, is a service for riders who need a safe way to reach a medical appointment without calling an ambulance. It's purpose-built for people who simply need help getting there and back.
Riders typically include older adults who no longer drive, people living with a disability, and anyone whose health makes the wheel impractical. NEMT vehicles range from sedans with hands-on walking support to wheelchair vans with ramps and tie-downs to stretcher units for riders who must travel lying flat.
A large share of NEMT trips repeat on a schedule: dialysis three days a week, weekly chemo or radiation, monthly cardiology follow-ups, ongoing physical therapy. The rest are single-event rides — a hospital discharge, an outpatient procedure pickup, a new-patient consult. The aim stays consistent: keep people connected to the care that keeps them well.
Powered by Modern Technology
Every ride is coordinated through Duet, a leading NEMT software platform that handles live vehicle tracking, predictable scheduling, and direct rider-to-driver updates from the time you book until you're back home.
More Than a Ride
Booking with us is rarely just about transportation. It's a moment of trust — handing over the care of a parent, a spouse, a neighbor, even yourself. Every conversation, every pickup, every walk to the door is shaped by one idea: the family on the other end of the phone should never have to wonder how the ride is going.
