When it comes to healthcare, nothing matters more than the well-being of your loved ones. Whether it’s a senior parent heading to a check-up, a patient with mobility challenges attending dialysis, or a veteran keeping up with ongoing treatment, getting to appointments safely and on time can feel overwhelming.
In Raleigh, families have several options for medical transportation—from driving themselves, to taxis, to public buses, to ridesharing apps. But when safety, accessibility, and peace of mind matter most, Non-Emergency Medical Transportation (NEMT) through UDO Transport is the safest choice.
Why Safety Matters in Medical Transportation
Healthcare appointments aren’t like casual outings—they often involve individuals who:
- Use wheelchairs or walkers
- Need assistance getting in and out of vehicles
- Are immunocompromised and need sanitized transport
- Require consistent, punctual rides for ongoing treatments
For these passengers, safety isn’t just a preference—it’s a necessity.

The Risks of Other Transportation Options
Taxis & Ride-Sharing Apps
While convenient, these drivers aren’t trained to handle patients with mobility or health challenges. Cars often aren’t wheelchair accessible, and drivers may not wait if extra time is needed.
Public Transit
Affordable, but stressful and unsafe for seniors or immunocompromised individuals. Long waits, crowded buses, and unpredictable schedules can make it nearly impossible to get to appointments safely and on time.
Family Driving
Many caregivers do their best to provide rides, but work schedules, family responsibilities, and traffic delays can make it difficult to ensure consistent, reliable transportation.
