The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a health crisis that no one was truly prepared for. As we slowly adjust to the new normal almost two years later since its onset, more and more individuals have realized the benefits of non-emergency medical transportation in Camarillo, California, especially among the vulnerable sector of the population.
The pandemic has reduced the transportation options for many Americans with vulnerable health conditions. They are faced with the dilemma of either risking potential infections through traditional transport or risking health complications by missing important medical appointments. Ambulatory transportation in Ventura County, California has provided patients with a safer alternative to get to their destinations without worrying about their health.
What’s more, non-emergency medical transportation makes medical trips more comfortable and convenient for patients. NEMT vehicles are equipped with the necessary equipment to provide sufficient patient care on the road. These vehicles can also be modified to address specific needs. For instance, NEMT vehicles can provide safe wheelchair transportation for wheelchair-bound individuals.
True indeed, transportation is one of the key aspects of healthcare access. Everyone will have better access to healthcare services through elderly transportation and other NEMT services, notwithstanding the pandemic that restricts our movements. NEMT ensures that no transportation barrier can stop patients from receiving the medical care they need.
