Conroe service
Who we serve
Conroe is about 40 miles north of Houston on I-45, and that drive shapes most of the trips we run there. Heading south to The Woodlands or the Texas Medical Center, or coming home to Montgomery County, dispatch builds the schedule around the distance.
Hospitals
Discharge transportation, interfacility transfers, and hospital-to-hospital transport for Conroe-area hospitals, plus longer trips south to The Woodlands and the Texas Medical Center.
Skilled nursing facilities
Skilled nursing facilities in Conroe and around Lake Conroe arrange scheduled ambulance transport for appointments and transfers, often the long drive down I-45 to Houston.
Rehabilitation centers
For rehab patients leaving a Conroe hospital or a Montgomery County rehab bed, dispatch plans the I-45 trip and the right level of care before quoting a pickup window.
Patients and families
When ambulance transport is medically appropriate, Preferred EMS provides scheduled non-emergency transportation for patients throughout Conroe and Montgomery County.
