What is Wheelchair Transport?
Wheelchair transport services are specifically designed to help individuals who use wheelchairs get from one place to another with ease and comfort. Unlike regular taxis or rideshares, wheelchair transport services utilize specialized vehicles equipped with ramps or lifts to safely accommodate passengers in wheelchairs.
This type of service is ideal for people who need assistance with transportation due to mobility challenges. It is often used for non-emergency medical transportation, such as visits to dialysis centers, doctor’s appointments, or hospital discharges.
