Can I get a ride to the hospital if needed?

UF Health Shands Hospital, like many hospitals, typically does not provide transportation services directly for patients. However, there are various options to consider if you need a ride to the hospital. Most people choose to use personal vehicles, but if that is not an option, local taxi services, ridesharing apps such as Uber or Lyft, and even public transportation may be viable alternatives. Additionally, some communities have non-emergency medical transportation services specifically designed for individuals who require assistance getting to medical appointments. It may be helpful to check the current web page of UF Health Shands or contact local transportation services to gather more specific information regarding ride options available in your area. Always ensure that you arrange for transportation in advance if your hospital visit is scheduled.
