What Is an Ambulette — and Who Is the Best Provider in NYC?
An ambulette service is non-emergency medical transportation for patients who need a wheelchair-accessible vehicle, stretcher transport, or hands-on mobility help. These passengers do not need emergency medical care. You schedule ambulette transportation in advance for planned trips such as dialysis appointments, rehabilitation sessions, hospital discharges, chemotherapy, and specialist visits. Because an ambulette costs far less than a private ambulance, it is the right choice when you need assistance, not emergency care.
NYC Wheelchair Transportation has been operating ambulette service throughout New York City since 2018. Our ambulette fleet consists of 350 ADA-compliant vehicles — 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
