Accessible Rides in San Mateo
Reliable Wheelchair Transportation in San Mateo
Transportation wheelchair service provides a planned, wheelchair-accessible ride for passengers who cannot safely or comfortably use a standard car, taxi or rideshare vehicle.
Non Emergency Medical Ride coordinates wheelchair-accessible transportation for San Mateo residents, seniors, patients, caregivers and families. Pickups may begin at a private residence, apartment, senior community, medical office, rehabilitation location, hospital, skilled nursing facility or another accessible entrance. Depending on the mobility device, passenger needs and assigned vehicle, the passenger may remain seated in a compatible wheelchair while boarding and traveling.
Each San Mateo request is reviewed using the pickup environment, destination, appointment schedule, wheelchair measurements, occupied weight, stairs or elevator access, assistance needs and companion seating. Route planning may account for US-101, State Route 92, El Camino Real, Hillsdale Boulevard, 3rd Avenue, Delaware Street and travel toward Burlingame, Foster City, Belmont, Redwood City, Daly City, San Francisco or Palo Alto, so accurate pickup and appointment times are important.
We provide transportation rather than emergency medical treatment. Call 911 when a passenger is experiencing an active medical emergency.

Mobility Device Planning
Wheelchair and Transport Chair Compatibility
Wheelchairs and transport chairs vary in width, length, total weight, battery type, turning radius and securement design. Accurate information helps determine whether an available medical transport van can accommodate the passenger and mobility device.
Tell us whether the passenger uses a manual wheelchair, travel wheelchair, electric transport chair, drive transport chair, medical transport chair, tall transport chair, bariatric wheelchair or another specialized device. For larger or off-road wheelchairs, provide the occupied measurements and total weight before scheduling.
A wheelchair accessible van transportation request is not confirmed until the available vehicle and mobility device are reviewed. Non Emergency Medical Ride provides transportation and does not sell wheelchairs, transport chairs or medical equipment.
Transfer from wheelchair to van or transfer from a bed to a wheelchair must also be discussed in advance. Clinical lifting, nursing care and multi-person transfers should never be assumed to be included.
