During a routine transport, New Jersey driver
supported a pregnant passenger who went into labor
Modivcare Inc. (the “Company” or “Modivcare”) (Nasdaq: MODV), a
technology-enabled healthcare services company that provides a
platform of integrated supportive care solutions focused on
improving health outcomes, is proud to recognize New Jersey
transportation provider, Joyful Medical Transportation, LLC, for
its dedication to serving its members.
In October 2024, Joyful Medical Transportation went above and
beyond to care for a member who went into labor during a scheduled
routine non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT) ride. Once
alerted, driver Brandon Gaston took action to quickly redirect to
the nearest hospital, arriving at the facility in time for hospital
staff to assist in a safe and successful delivery. This trip
showcases the provider’s outstanding dedication to ensuring
Modivcare members can access the care they need, even in an
unpredictable circumstance.
“We commend Brandon for his quick thinking and calm demeanor
that helped display our team's unwavering commitment to care,” said
Moses Adedeji, owner of Joyful Medical Transportation. “His actions
are a powerful example of the dedication our team brings to serving
our New Jersey members every day as not just transportation
providers, but as trusted partners in their care journey.”
Joyful Medical Transportation has served its community in
partnership with Modivcare since 2023, operating with four vehicles
to facilitate transportation for underserved populations. Modivcare
serves more than 2 million New Jersey residents with its NEMT
services and has managed the program for the state since 2009.
“This scenario speaks volumes about the attentiveness of a
driver during a routine ride that turned emergent,” said Leroy
Boone, Modivcare’s Senior Director of Transportation Operations,
New Jersey. “Joyful Medical Transportation’s swift, safe, and
compassionate action ensured both the mother and baby received the
critical care they needed in time. We’re proud to have a team that
prioritizes the well-being of every member and embodies our mission
to connect people with the care they need.”
