Who we serve
Most hospital trips from Missouri City leave town. A resident in Sienna or Lake Olympia usually goes west on SH 6 or US-59 to the Sugar Land hospitals, or north on the Fort Bend Tollway toward the Texas Medical Center. Stafford sits right on the US-59 and Beltway 8 interchange, one of the busiest spots on the southwest side, and dispatch times pickups around it.
Hospitals
Discharges and transfers to and from the nearest hospitals in Sugar Land, including Houston Methodist Sugar Land Hospital, Memorial Hermann Sugar Land Hospital and St. Luke's Health–Sugar Land Hospital, plus trips into the Texas Medical Center.
Skilled nursing facilities
Nursing facilities in Missouri City and Stafford book ambulance transport for appointments, procedures and hospital transfers, most of it on US-59, SH 6 or Texas Parkway.
Rehabilitation centers
Rehab patients moving between a Sugar Land hospital, a Missouri City facility and home are scheduled so the handoff at each end is confirmed before the unit leaves.
