At Ride A WAV Cincy , we know something important about our Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky community:
Family means everything.
But we also know real life is busy. Work schedules, school pickups, out-of-town relatives, and everyday responsibilities don’t always line up with surgery dates or medical procedures.
That’s why we’re proud to introduce our new Medical Travel Companion Service — created specifically for families in Cincinnati, Ohio and Northern Kentucky who need a responsible adult to accompany their loved one to a medical procedure and safely bring them home.
When you can’t be there in person, we step in with care.
What Is a Medical Travel Companion?
More Than a Ride — It’s Support from Start to Finish
Our Medical Travel Companion Service includes:
Transportation to your medical appointment
A responsible adult who stays during your procedure
Safe transportation home
Door-through-door assistance
Support until you are safely inside your home
This service is ideal for:
Same-day surgeries
Colonoscopies
Eye surgeries (including cataract procedures)
Endoscopy procedures
Outpatient hospital visits
Any procedure requiring anesthesia
Any appointment requiring a responsible adult for discharge
We’re not just picking you up. We’re staying with you.
Why This Service Matters in Cincinnati & NKY
Hospitals Require a Responsible Adult After Anesthesia
Medical facilities across Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky will not release patients to taxis or rideshares after sedation.
Why?
Because anesthesia can cause:
Dizziness
Confusion
Delayed reaction time
Unsteady balance
Hospitals require a responsible adult who can:
Receive discharge instructions
Assist you into the vehicle
Ensure you get home safely
That’s exactly what our Medical Travel Companion Service provides.
Designed for Local Families
For Seniors Living Independently
Many of our clients in Cincinnati and NKY live alone or in senior communities. Their children may live in another state, work full-time, or care for young kids.
You shouldn’t have to reschedule important medical care because someone can’t take the day off.
We treat your loved one like family.
For Adult Children Managing Care
If you’re coordinating care for Mom or Dad while balancing work and family, we understand the pressure.
You can’t always sit in a waiting room for 3–5 hours during a procedure.
With Ride A WAV Cincy:
You receive peace of mind
Discharge requirements are properly handled
Everyone feels secure
For Individuals Without Nearby Family
Not everyone has someone available at short notice.
Whether you're new to the Cincinnati/NKY area, your family is out of town, or you simply need dependable help — we are here.
No judgment. Just support.
How Our Medical Travel Companion Service Works

Call our local team and let us know:

Assistance into the vehicle
Wheelchair securement (if needed)

There is no waiting for a pickup. No stress.

Assist you into the vehicle
