Medical transportation in Medfield, MA means prescheduled ground transport, without an ambulance, for patients who cannot use a car, a taxi, a rideshare, or a bus to reach an appointment. FedNor Transportation, LLC serves all of Medfield, from the historic town center near Frairy Street to West Medfield and the Vine Lake area, dispatched from 945 Concord Street in Framingham. Medfield has minimal public transit, so a dependable door through door ride is often the only practical option for a medical trip. Call 781.552.4559, seven days a week from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM.

Our Services

What Medical Transportation Services Does FedNor Offer in Medfield?

FedNor operates six medical transportation service lines for Medfield patients, and every one runs door through door. Colonial and farmhouse style homes around Medfield Center often sit on sloped lots with a walkway of several steps, and a curb to curb operator would leave the hardest part of the trip to the patient. Our drivers walk to the door, manage steps with a stair chair when needed, and escort the passenger to the check in desk at the other end.

Wheelchair Transportation

ADA compliant vans with four point tie downs for manual, power, tilt in space, and bariatric wheelchairs. The passenger stays in their own chair from pickup door to appointment door.

Powered and Heavy Wheelchair Transport

Powered wheelchairs, tilt in space chairs, bariatric chairs, and motorized scooters up to 600 pounds with four point securement. Most area operators decline these chairs. We do not.

Stretcher and Stair Chair Service

Professional Stryker stretchers with a trained attendant for patients who cannot sit upright, plus stair chair assistance for walk ups, split entries, and narrow staircases.

Ambulatory and Senior Transportation

Accessible vehicles with full driver assistance at both ends for passengers who walk with a cane, walker, or crutches. Door through door, on your schedule.

Recurring Dialysis, Infusion, and Therapy Schedules

Standing schedules for dialysis, chemotherapy, radiation, infusion, wound care, and physical therapy. Same driver, same vehicle, same pickup window, every session.

Hospital Discharge and Inter Facility Transfers

Same day discharge pickups when the hospital calls in the afternoon. Contracted facility service with priority scheduling for skilled nursing homes and rehabilitation centers.

Wheelchair Service

Do You Offer Wheelchair Transportation in Medfield?

Our ADA compliant vans carry Medfield wheelchair users in their own chairs, secured with four point tie downs, from the pickup door to the appointment door. No transfer is required, which matters on Medfield's sloped walkways and older sidewalks near the town center. Tell us the chair type, the chair weight, and whether steps sit between the door and the street, and we assign the right vehicle before the day of the ride.

FedNor also carries powered wheelchairs, tilt in space chairs, bariatric chairs, and motorized scooters up to 600 pounds with four point securement. A Medfield rider turned away elsewhere over chair weight gets a direct answer here: confirm the weight on the call, and the right van is dispatched.

Stretcher Service

Can Patients Travel on a Stretcher in Medfield?

Medfield patients who cannot sit upright travel on professional Stryker stretchers with a trained attendant on board. Families arranging a discharge from Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital Needham or Newton Wellesley Hospital back to a Medfield home use this service for scheduled discharges and long distance supine moves.

The attendant confirms positioning with facility staff, locks the stretcher into the vehicle system, monitors comfort for the full trip, and completes a staff to staff handoff at the receiving desk. Where a sloped walkway or entry steps stand between the door and the vehicle, our stair chair service closes that gap safely first.

The Basics

What Is Non Emergency Medical Transportation in Medfield?

Non emergency medical transportation, shortened to NEMT, covers prescheduled ground transport for patients whose condition rules out driving, transit, or a rideshare, but who need no ambulance. Medfield riders use it for dialysis, chemotherapy, infusion, wound care, post surgical follow ups, and hospital discharges.

How Does NEMT Differ from Other Medfield Transport Options?

  • Rideshare apps carry no lift, no tie downs, no wait, and no escort past the curb.
  • Public transit runs minimal routes through Medfield and ends at a stop rather than a front door.
  • The Medfield Council on Aging van covers limited hours and does not carry stretchers.
  • Ambulance transport answers emergencies and bills at emergency rates.

How Does FedNor Fill the Gap?

FedNor fills the gap between those options: scheduled, accessible, door through door, priced upfront, and available across town lines. Private pay riders book directly with a transportation company and skip the middleman.

NEMT is not an ambulance service. NEMT vehicles carry no paramedics and no clinical monitoring equipment. A life threatening condition in Medfield requires a 911 call to the Medfield Fire Department, not a van booking. FedNor Transportation is a private pay provider: rides are booked directly with us or billed to a partner facility, with rates quoted upfront and payment due upfront.

Eligibility

Who Books and Pays for Medfield Rides?

FedNor is a private pay provider, which means Medfield families, facilities, and case managers book directly and pay by the trip with no middleman in between. Four rider groups fit this model:

  1. 1Patients whose health insurance carries no transportation benefit.
  2. 2Families arranging hospital discharge rides, surgical drop offs, or post procedure pickups on short notice.
  3. 3Facilities such as skilled nursing homes, rehabilitation centers, and law firms that bill trips to an account.
  4. 4Riders who want door through door service, a specific pickup time, or a same day booking that rideshare apps and transit cannot deliver.

Because FedNor is private pay, you deal directly with us. You call, we quote the exact fare, and the vehicle is dispatched. Payment is due upfront, and one companion rides free.
