We are incredibly proud of Missy and Jessica, whose dedication and commitment to their profession truly embody the values we strive for at Valley Medical Transport. Their compassion, professionalism, and attention to detail not only ensure exceptional patient care but also strengthen the vital partnership we have with our hospice team. Unwavering commitments like this inspires us every day and drives us to continually provide the highest level of service and support to patients and their families during such critical moments.

🥰Hospice HUGS 🥰

Recently, our team had the privilege of receiving a patient whose transport crew from Valley Medical Transport demonstrated exceptional compassion and professionalism from the moment they arrived.

They showed genuine empathy toward both the patient and their loved one, creating a calm and reassuring presence during what can be a very emotional transition. In addition to their kindness, they ensured a seamless continuity of care by providing a thorough written report — including relevant history, hospital vitals, transport vitals, medications administered, and dosages given prior to arrival. That level of detail and preparation makes a meaningful difference in the care we are able to provide.

Before leaving, they took the time to connect with our Inpatient Team, ensuring all questions were answered and everyone felt supported. Their thoughtfulness, clinical diligence, and patient-centered approach did not go unnoticed.

When patients are non‑ambulatory or bed‑confined, getting safely to and from care shouldn’t be a barrier. Our Non‑Emergent Medical Transport (NEMT) Stretcher Van is purpose‑built to provide safe, dignified, and dependable transportation for patients who cannot sit upright or transfer independently.

Our stretcher van is equipped to transport patients who require a lying‑down position during transport, making it ideal for:
• Dialysis appointments
• Physician and specialty visits
• Hospital discharge to home or facility
• Follow‑up and ongoing medical care
Medicaid‑Covered Transportation
Virginia Medicaid covers these transports with prior authorization, making this service an accessible and cost‑effective option for eligible patients.

Call VMT‑Dispatch at 1‑800‑776‑4067

Our dispatch team is ready to answer questions, assist with authorizations, and help schedule transport.

As we close out 2025, I want to take a moment to reflect on what has truly been an extraordinary year for Valley Medical Transport (VMT).

Over the past year, our team had the honor of providing care to approximately 20,500 patients during some of their most critical and vulnerable moments. These numbers represent far more than statistics—they represent neighbors, families, and individuals who relied on us when it mattered most.

Our Wi******er, Virginia operation safely completed nearly 15,000 patient transports, while our Keyser, West Virginia base successfully handled more than 5,000 transports. In addition, our wheelchair services provided nearly 3,000 transports, ensuring safe and reliable access to care for those with mobility needs. Our specialized Mental Health SUV also delivered compassionate support to approximately 500 individuals experiencing a mental health crisis, offering dignity, respect, and care during critical moments.

To accomplish this incredible work, our team collectively drove over 1.3 million miles, supported by a robust fleet of 30 ambulances, 5 wheelchair vans, and 2 mental health vehicles. Every mile driven reflects dedication, professionalism, and an unwavering commitment to safety and excellence.

I could not be more proud of—and grateful for—the amazing people I have the privilege to work alongside each day. Our team consistently shows up with heart, skill, and purpose, all united by a shared mission: Serving Our Community By Improving Health.

On behalf of everyone at Valley Medical Transport, we thank you for your continued trust and support. We wish you and your loved ones a happy, healthy, and safe New Year.

Warm Regards,

Craig Barrett
Senior Director

I am overjoyed to share some truly exciting news that shines a spotlight on the incredible talent and dedication within our ranks at VMT.

The International Board Of Specialty Certification (IBSC) offers Specialty Certifications, a voluntary but highly respected credentialing process designed to validate the essential knowledge and judgment required for safe and competent practice in our field. These certifications represent a gold standard, confirming that professionals possess the critical skills and knowledge necessary to excel in their roles.

At VMT, our Community Paramedics play a pivotal role in caring for patients right in their homes, handling non-urgent medical situations outside the hospital setting and operating under the expert supervision of a physician. Their work is vital: by partnering closely with Valley Health, we are proudly expanding the reach of primary care and public health services, creating a meaningful impact in our community’s health and wellbeing.

Now, I am delighted to announce that our very own Justine Mantz has recently passed her Community Paramedic exam—joining the ranks of a select few nationwide who hold this prestigious certification. Justine’s dedication, perseverance, and expertise have not only earned her this distinguished credential but also enhanced our team’s capacity to deliver outstanding patient care.

Please join me in congratulating Justine Mantz on this fantastic achievement!
