Transportation Services
Our Transportation Department strives to provide safe, reliable, and timely transportation, so you can focus on your health and well-being. We are a limited resource providing non-emergency transport services to UIHS clients within the UIHS service area.
Please note: We are unable to provide transportation to clients who reside outside of the UIHS service areas. If you have any questions, please give us a call in Tribal Public Health at 707-825-5070.
We are committed to making sure you get to your appointments. We offer limited transportation for both
UIHS and non-UIHS clinical appointments.
For UIHS Appointments:
When you schedule your clinical appointment (medical, dental, or vision), inform the Front Office Assistant that you need transportation. They will coordinate your appointment time with the availability of our drivers. Behavioral Health (BH) provides their own transportation, call BH if you need transportation for your appointment.
For Appointments at Other Facilities:
- Contact our dedicated transportation team directly:
- Humboldt: 707-825-5070
- Del Norte: 707-464-2750
- Appointments outside of UIHS will need to be scheduled for either 10:00 a.m. or 2:00 p.m. to ensure we can accommodate your transportation needs.
Our transportation services are limited and operate on a first-come, first-served basis. To secure your ride, it’s best to schedule your transportation as early as possible.
REMINDER: Transportation must be scheduled 48 hours prior to the appointment. If it falls under 48 hours, please directly contact the driver to determine if this accommodation can be made.
Service Guidelines
To ensure a safe and smooth transportation experience, please follow these guidelines:
- Children must have appropriate car seats to be transported.
- All minors must be accompanied by a parent/guardian.
- If you need to cancel or change your transportation request, please notify the clinic at least 24 hours in advance. Failure to do so will result in a “No Show.”
- Having three “No Shows” will result in a three-month ineligibility from our transportation services.
