Haslet Medical Transportation: Straight Answers
Does Presence NEMT serve Haslet?
Yes. Haslet is our home community and part of our core service area.
Presence NEMT is based in Haslet, so pickups along Avondale-Haslet Road, FM 156, Haslet-Roanoke Road, Willow Springs and the neighborhoods on either side of I-35W are everyday work for our drivers.
What kinds of rides do Haslet families book most?
Appointment trips toward the Alliance corridor and Fort Worth, plus recurring treatment schedules.
Dialysis, infusion, physical therapy, orthopedic and post-surgical follow-up trips make up much of the Haslet schedule, along with hospital discharge rides coming home.
Is this an ambulance service?
No. Presence NEMT is non-emergency medical transportation only.
If someone is having a medical emergency, call 911. We transport riders who are stable and need safe, appropriate transportation to and from care.
Locally Based Medical Transportation in Haslet
Haslet is not a market we cover from a distance. It is where Presence NEMT is based, which changes what a phone call actually gets you. When a Haslet resident or a family member calls, they reach local dispatch rather than a national call center handing the trip to whoever happens to be closest across the metroplex.
That local footing shows up in small, practical ways. Our dispatch team knows the difference between an address off Avondale-Haslet Road and one out toward FM 156 or Willow Springs, knows how the Alliance-area traffic behaves on a weekday morning, and knows which routes toward Fort Worth actually move at 7:30 a.m. versus mid-morning. Presence NEMT is nurse-owned, and the same standards apply to a five-mile Haslet trip as to a long-distance one.

Where Haslet Trips Usually Go
Most Haslet medical appointments head south toward the Alliance corridor and North Fort Worth, or on into central Fort Worth for hospital, specialist and cancer-center visits. Others run east toward Keller, Southlake, Roanoke and Grapevine, and some families travel further to Dallas for a specific program.
Haslet also sits at the Tarrant County end of our northwest corridor, so trips continuing out toward Newark, Rhome, Boyd, Decatur and the rest of Wise County are familiar territory rather than an exception. We time each trip against the actual appointment rather than a generic window, which matters most on procedure days when a check-in time is firm.
Scheduling, Waits and the Return Trip
The return leg is where medical transportation most often falls apart, so we plan it up front. If the appointment has a predictable length, we schedule the return. If it does not, we set the trip up as a will-call return, so the rider or the front desk can reach dispatch when they are actually finished. For shorter appointments, a driver can wait rather than leaving and coming back.
Dispatch is staffed 24 hours a day by phone or text. Recurring riders can set a standing weekly pattern so the same pickup time holds treatment after treatment instead of being rebooked each week. Availability for any specific date and time is confirmed by dispatch rather than promised in advance.
Hospital Discharge and Facility Transfers
When a Haslet resident is being discharged, we coordinate with the discharge team so the right vehicle and mobility equipment are matched to the rider before the trip is confirmed, whether they are heading home or on to a rehabilitation or skilled nursing facility.
Facility-to-facility transfers within Tarrant County and out into the northwest corridor work the same way: mobility level, equipment, appointment or arrival time, and the return status are settled in writing so nothing is guessed at the curb.
For Case Managers, Facilities and Families Coordinating from Out of Town
Discharge planners, social workers, nurse case managers and facility schedulers arranging a Haslet trip can send the details in writing instead of holding on a phone line. Our coordination form collects the pickup address, destination, mobility level, appointment time and return-trip status in one pass, and dispatch follows up to confirm what we can cover.
Adult children living out of state often arrange rides for a parent in Haslet. That works the same way — you can call, text or send the details in writing, and our dispatch team communicates with you rather than expecting the rider to manage the logistics alone. Escort support from a companion, CNA, MA or Nurse can be requested when a rider should not navigate an outing by themselves; it is arranged on request for an additional fee rather than included in every trip.
