Non-Emergency Medical Transportation in Richwood, TX
Safe, reliable rides for seniors and individuals with disabilities.
Why Choose Us
Richwood is a small Brazoria County town of roughly 4,000 tucked between Lake Jackson and Clute, and for most riders here, the medical corridor starts the moment they turn north onto Brazosport Boulevard. St. Luke's Health – Brazosport Hospital sits minutes up TX-288, DaVita Lake Jackson Dialysis keeps weekly sessions close, and UTMB Health Angleton Danbury Campus handles much of the rest. With no public bus and an older resident base that's largely stopped driving, our non-emergency medical transportation quietly holds that routine together — through hospital visits, dialysis chairs, outpatient work, and the long haul to Houston when a specialist calls for it.
A ride with us always begins at the front door — a knock, a steady arm across the driveway, and a careful settle into the seat. From there, the driver stays with you to the front desk of whatever clinic is on the schedule, then waits for the call that says you're finished. That's the kind of attentiveness we'd want for our own parents, and it's what Richwood riders get every single trip.

Testimonials
They handled my mother's discharge transport beautifully. She has mobility issues and the driver took extra time to make sure she was comfortable. No rushing, no impatience. Just genuine kindness.
– Virginia M.
My mom goes to her endocrinologist and her eye doctor regularly. One booking handles both recurring schedules. The coordination is seamless and the drivers know her by name.
– Irene L.
The automatic ramp in their newer vehicles is a game-changer. Smooth, quiet, and requires zero effort from me. Combined with experienced drivers, it makes wheelchair transport actually pleasant.
– Norman E.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I book a ride?
Give us a quick call at 877-369-5457, or tap the "Book a Ride" button right here on the page. For routine Richwood trips, a day or two of notice works best, though same-day rides sometimes slot in when a driver is already running the Brazosport Boulevard corridor.
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 to St. Luke's Health – Brazosport or dialysis in Lake Jackson usually need about 24 hours of notice. Longer runs up TX-288 to the Texas Medical Center work best with 48 to 72 hours of lead time, since the drive itself runs 60 to 90 minutes each way.
What if I need a wheelchair-accessible vehicle?
Flag it at booking and we'll dispatch the right van. Our wheelchair-accessible vehicles carry certified ramps and secure tie-down systems that handle manual chairs, power chairs, and mobility scooters, and the assigned driver is trained on proper wheelchair securement before your pickup.
Can a family member or caregiver ride with me?
Yes — a spouse, adult child, or caregiver is welcome to ride along, and the companion seat usually comes at no added cost. Just mention the extra passenger when you book so we can reserve the seat, which helps especially on the longer Richwood-to-Houston runs.
Questions? We're here to help!
What is NEMT?
NEMT, short for Non-Emergency Medical Transportation, is a scheduled ride service for people who need a professional way to reach a medical appointment but whose situation doesn't call for an ambulance or a 911 response.
Riders are mostly seniors who've hung up the car keys, adults living with long-term disabilities, and anyone whose health makes the drive unsafe. The vehicle matches the trip — wheelchair-accessible vans with certified ramps and tie-downs, stretcher vans for riders who must stay flat, and standard vehicles staffed by drivers trained in hands-on walking assistance.
Most bookings cover ongoing care like thrice-weekly dialysis, chemotherapy sessions, physical rehab, and regular primary check-ins, alongside one-time rides such as outpatient surgery pickups and hospital discharges. The point is simple and steady: keep riders connected to the treatment that keeps them well, and protect the independence that matters most.
Powered by Modern Technology
Every Richwood ride runs through Duet (https://www.duetinc.com/), a trusted NEMT platform that gives riders live vehicle tracking, steady scheduling, and a direct thread to the driver and dispatcher from pickup through drop-off.
More Than a Ride
Every booking is someone handing us a person they love — a father heading to dialysis, a mother recovering from surgery, an aunt who won't ask her kids for another favor. That responsibility shapes every small choice a driver makes. The ride itself should be the one piece of the day nobody in Richwood has to worry about.
