• Care level — seated, wheelchair, or stretcher, and whether oxygen is part of the plan
• Days on the road — one day, or two with scheduled rest stops
• Both ends — stairs, elevator access, facility loading limits, and whether a family member rides along

North Carolina Healthcare Network Coordination for Old Fort Transports

Long-distance trips involving Old Fort may start or end at hospitals, rehab centers, skilled nursing facilities, or private residences across North Carolina. Exact pickup, room, discharge, and destination details are confirmed for the booked trip. We do not operate as an on-scene emergency service; these are planned, non-emergency moves.

Bedside to bedside means the crew comes to the room, not the curb: the passenger moves onto the transport surface, belongings and equipment travel with them, the drive is broken by planned rest stops, families are updated as it progresses, and it ends with a handoff to staff in the destination room.

Airport-adjacent ground legs are available when families compare state-to-state medical transport against air ambulance cost. Ground transport is often the practical middle path for stable patients who still need stretcher capability or clinical oversight en route.

Before You Request a Quote from Old Fort

Two limits decide service fit before anything else, so they are worth checking first: the passenger must be at least 21 years old, and cannot exceed 280 pounds. Trips are planned, non-emergency, and generally run beyond 150 miles — a same-town or across-town ride is not what this service does.

Beyond that, the practical answer families want when they are comparing providers: we own the vehicles and run the trips ourselves rather than handing them to an outside carrier, so the crew that collects the passenger is the crew that delivers them.
