How Our Discharge Transportation Process Works

  1. A transportation request is submitted by the facility staff.
  2. The patient’s mobility level is confirmed as ambulatory, wheelchair, or gurney.
  3. The appropriate vehicle and equipment are dispatched.
  4. The patient is assisted safely into the vehicle.
  5. Transportation is completed to the patient’s home or receiving facility.
  6. Trip documentation and completion confirmation are finalized.

This structured approach helps medical facilities reduce discharge delays and maintain operational efficiency.
