The Benefits Of Using Non-Emergency Medical Transportation For Individuals Recovering From Surgery

Recovering from surgery can be a challenging and stressful process, and transportation can be a major hurdle for many patients. Fortunately, SafrCare can handle all your non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT) services needs and can provide a range of benefits for patients who are recovering from surgery. Here are a few areas where NEMT services can help:

1. Limited mobility: Depending on the type of surgery, the patient may experience limited mobility during the recovery period. This may be due to factors such as pain, swelling, or weakness. In some cases, the patient may be instructed to avoid certain movements or activities altogether. This limited mobility can make it difficult or impossible for the patient to drive or use public transportation, which is where NEMT services come in. With NEMT services, the patient can be transported safely and comfortably to and from medical appointments without having to worry about the physical strain of driving or navigating public transportation.

2. Special medical needs: Some patients recovering from surgery may require special medical equipment or assistance during transportation. For example, a patient who requires oxygen may need to use an oxygen tank or concentrator during transportation. A patient who is in a wheelchair may need a wheelchair-accessible vehicle or lift to ensure that they can get in and out of the vehicle safely. NEMT services can provide these accommodations and ensure that the patient is able to travel safely and comfortably.

3. Distance from medical facilities: In some cases, a patient may live far away from the medical facility where they received their surgery. Public transportation may not be an option. This can make it difficult or inconvenient for the patient to attend follow-up appointments or receive other necessary medical care. NEMT services can help by providing transportation to and from medical appointments and procedures, regardless of the distance involved. This can help ensure that the patient receives the care they need without having to worry about transportation logistics.

4. Lack of social support: Some patients recovering from surgery may not have friends or family members available to assist with transportation during the recovery period. This can be especially challenging if the patient is unable to drive or use public transportation on their own. NEMT services can provide a reliable and safe way for the patient to get to and from medical appointments and procedures, even if they don't have social support available. This can help ease the stress and anxiety that can come with navigating transportation logistics during the recovery process.
