Make NEMT Safer with Professional Chaperones

Your facility relies on NEMT and Medicaid transport, but who stays with the resident once they leave your building?RydeAide solves the 'Curb-to-Curb' Gap. We do not provide the vehicle; we provide the professional Patient Aide who rides with your resident in their scheduled transport.

  • Stop Sending Your Staff: Don't pull a CNA off the floor to accompany a resident. We take the trip for you.
