Job description

Non-Emergency Medical Transportation Drivers (Brunswick, St.Marys, Folkston, Hoboken, ).
Companies offering Non-emergency transportation services require a driver to take people to their destinations.

Some patients who are unable to move on need help getting to their final destination, whether it is the doctor’s office or their home.
