How does non-emergency hospital discharge transport work?
Patriot EMS works with all hospital systems, including Northside, Emory, Piedmont, NE Georgia, Grady, Tanner, Wellstar, and community hospitals to clear beds quickly while keeping patients safe during the ride home or to post-acute care.
Quick answer
Patriot EMS arranges same-day and scheduled non-emergency transport from Georgia hospitals to a receiving facility or other approved destination. Dispatch confirms trip timing, transport type, and availability with the requester. For a life-threatening emergency, call 911.
