About Our Yatesville Service

Local Medical Transportation for Yatesville & the Wyoming Valley

Yatesville sits in the heart of Luzerne County just minutes from Pittston, Dupont, and the broader Wyoming Valley. When a resident needs a ride to a dialysis session at DaVita Wyoming Valley, a follow-up at Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center, or a discharge from Wilkes-Barre General Hospital after a procedure, Touch of Kindness Transportation is the call to make. We are a local NEMT provider based in West Pittston, and Yatesville is part of our home territory.

Our fleet includes wheelchair-accessible vans equipped with hydraulic lifts and 4-point tie-down systems, stretcher-capable vehicles for non-ambulatory patients, and standard ambulatory transport for those who simply need a reliable ride. Every driver is professionally trained, background-checked, and experienced with the unique needs of medically vulnerable passengers.

The Wyoming Valley has a proud working-class identity and many of its residents are seniors, veterans, and individuals managing serious chronic conditions who depend on consistent transportation to stay healthy. Whether it’s a weekly visit to the Wilkes-Barre VA Medical Center on East End Boulevard, recurring cancer treatment at Geisinger’s oncology center, or a trip to an outpatient rehabilitation clinic, we show up on time, every time.

We serve Yatesville, Pittston, Dupont, Duryea, Avoca, Jenkins Township, West Pittston, Exeter, and all surrounding Luzerne County communities. If you or someone you love needs dependable medical transportation in the Wyoming Valley, we’re ready to build a schedule that fits.
