FirstMed Transit provides safe, reliable Non Emergency Medical Transportation Folsom CA for seniors, wheelchair users, and patients throughout Folsom, CA. We offer wheelchair-accessible, ambulatory, and scheduled transportation for dialysis, medical appointments, recovery visits, and ongoing treatments with trained drivers and on-time pickups. FirstMed Transit combines local experience, patient-focused care, and dependable service to make every medical trip comfortable and stress-free.
We provide rides to primary care visits, specialist appointments, routine checkups, and follow-up visits, with the same punctual, attentive service regardless of how often you need a ride.
Dialysis patients often need transportation multiple times a week, and a missed session can have real health consequences. We support recurring dialysis transportation with consistent scheduling, so patients can count on the same dependable pickup pattern every week.
Our wheelchair accessible vehicles are equipped with secure restraint systems and ramps or lifts, allowing wheelchair users to board and exit safely. Drivers are trained in proper securement for both manual and powered mobility equipment.
For passengers who can walk independently or with minor assistance, ambulatory transportation offers a comfortable ride option built around the same reliable scheduling, with extra support available for seniors who need a bit more help getting in and out of the vehicle.
Leaving the hospital after a procedure or extended stay can be physically draining. Our hospital discharge transportation service ensures patients get home safely, with assistance from the discharge area into the vehicle and back into their home.
Physical therapy and occupational therapy often require multiple visits per week during recovery. We help patients stay consistent with outpatient rehabilitation transportation so treatment plans aren’t disrupted by transportation gaps.
When a specialist or treatment facility is located outside Folsom, we also coordinate long-distance medical transportation to regional healthcare destinations throughout the greater Sacramento area.
Beyond routine appointments, we support cancer treatment transportation, mental healthcare visits, pharmacy stops, and transportation to and from senior care facilities, recognizing that healthcare needs don’t always fit into a single category.

Non-emergency medical transportation refers to transport for patients who need help getting to a medical appointment but aren’t in a medical emergency. It’s different from an ambulance ride in one key way: there’s no emergency medical equipment or paramedic care involved, just a safe, supported ride with a trained driver. NEMT is commonly used by seniors who no longer drive, wheelchair users, dialysis patients attending recurring treatment, and anyone recovering from a procedure who shouldn’t be driving themselves.
A medical appointment can already feel stressful without worrying about how you’ll get there and back.
