CuraTransit drivers help passengers in and out of the vehicle and to the building entrance. It is ideal for seniors, post-procedure patients and recurring appointments in Metro Detroit.

Who this service is for

  • Seniors who no longer drive
  • Patients after outpatient surgery, colonoscopy or sedation
  • People who use a cane or walker
  • Patients with vision loss or seizure restrictions
  • Anyone without reliable transportation to care

More than a ride: why patients choose ambulatory NEMT

Rideshare drivers are not trained to assist passengers and usually wait at the curb. For an older adult or a patient who just had a procedure, that last stretch from the door to the car — or from the car to the clinic — is where falls happen. Our drivers are trained to provide hands-on assistance, wait while you get settled, and make sure you get inside safely.

If you are coming home after a procedure with sedation, ask your clinic about their discharge rules. Many require a responsible adult escort; we can coordinate with the clinic about pickup timing.
