Standing schedules for dialysis, cancer treatment, Henry Cancer Center visits, and recurring care.
Hospital Discharge Transport
Safe rides home from hospital stays, procedures, or rehab with the right vehicle for each passenger’s mobility needs.

Local Expertise
Care From the West Bank of the Susquehanna
Wyoming sits on the western bank of the Susquehanna, about five miles north of Wilkes-Barre. Most medical trips run south and across the valley toward Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center in Plains Township, Geisinger South Wilkes-Barre, Kingston clinics, Wilkes-Barre specialists, dialysis centers, and therapy offices.
Closer to home, care and senior facilities in Swoyersville, Forty Fort, and Pittston also serve many residents. We carry Wyoming passengers across the river or down the west bank as the appointment requires, with door-through-door assistance from home to the correct medical entrance.

A River Town That Knows High Water
Wyoming’s position along the Susquehanna means weather and river conditions matter. We plan recurring medical trips around local streets, bridges, and seasonal conditions.
Crossing the River, Reaching the Right Door
Many Wyoming appointments require crossing the valley. We plan the route and confirm the entrance so wheelchair and stretcher passengers arrive where they need to be.
Our Coverage Area
Serving Wyoming and the Neighboring Boroughs
We serve Wyoming and nearby communities on both sides of the river. These closely connected boroughs sit minutes apart, and knowing how Wyoming links to each of them — including which bridges and routes best serve the hospitals — keeps every ride efficient and on time.

Medical Assistance Transportation in Luzerne County
Wyoming is part of Luzerne County, so its Medical Assistance Transportation Program runs through LCTA Shared Ride, the Luzerne County Transportation Authority. LCTA provides free shared rides to covered appointments for Medical Assistance recipients, but it is curb-to-curb, drivers cannot help a passenger inside the home or take a wheelchair up or down multiple steps, and out-of-county trips must be booked two weeks ahead. Our private-pay service provides door-through-door help, a dedicated vehicle, and precise arrival support when shared-ride is not enough.

Common Questions
Questions Wyoming Riders Ask
Getting to Geisinger Wyoming Valley from Wyoming
For most Wyoming residents, the main hospital trip runs across the valley to Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center in Plains Township. We confirm the correct East, West, emergency, Pearsall Heart Hospital, or Henry Cancer Center entrance before the ride.
Crossing the river and reaching the right hospital
Because Wyoming sits on the west bank, many trips involve crossing the Susquehanna toward hospitals on the other side of the valley, including by way of the Eighth Street Bridge. We plan the crossing around appointment time, traffic, and weather.
Reliable rides through flood season and winter weather
Wyoming knows both flooding and hard winters, but dialysis and cancer treatment still need to happen. We run recurring trips year-round with drivers who understand local roads and conditions.
Standing trips for dialysis and ongoing treatment
For Wyoming patients traveling several times a week to dialysis or the Henry Cancer Center, we set a fixed weekly schedule built around the clinic’s timing, so rides are reserved without rebooking each time.
Can a family member or caregiver ride along?
Yes. A caregiver or family member is always welcome to ride along at no extra charge.
Do you provide wheelchair, stretcher, and ambulatory rides?
Yes. We provide wheelchair-accessible, stretcher-equipped, and assisted ambulatory rides throughout Wyoming, the west bank boroughs, Wilkes-Barre, Pittston, and the Wyoming Valley.
