WellWay Non-Emergency Medical Transportation

Access to reliable transportation is essential for seniors to maintain their independence, attend medical appointments, and stay engaged in the community. Whether you’re a caregiver, a nursing home administrator, or someone working in the senior care industry, helping seniors find safe and dependable transportation is one of the most impactful things you can do.

Planning ahead, choosing the right type of transport, and working with a provider based in your area can make all the difference. We’ve put together a guide to help seniors and their families navigate their options, avoid unnecessary costs, and ensure they always have a reliable ride when they need it.

If you know someone who could benefit from this information, share this post and help connect seniors with the transportation they deserve. Let’s work together to keep our communities mobile, independent, and supported.

We’re excited to announce the launch of our stretcher transportation services using the Broda Traversa, and we’ve reached one of our 2025 goals ahead of schedule!

With this new service, we’re able to provide safe, comfortable, and cost-effective stretcher transport to those in need.

What makes this service special?

Comfort-First Design – Reduces pressure and enhances support for a smoother ride.
Smooth & Secure Transport – Tilt-in-space technology keeps patients stable and safe.
Cost-Effective & Efficient – These stretchers fit into standard wheelchair vans and can be operated by a single trained professional, significantly reducing costs compared to traditional stretcher transport.

Now serving Cobb and Cherokee Counties.

We’re proud to reach this milestone and continue to enhance our services. Thank you for your continued support.

Long-distance medical transportation requires more than just a ride—it takes experience, compassion, and the right team. This weekend, we completed a transport for an individual moving from Florida to Georgia, ensuring a smooth and comfortable journey with the help of our partners at ComForCare.

Leading this trip was Christopher Griffith, one of WellWay’s exceptional drivers. As a former EMT and volunteer firefighter, Christopher brings a level of care and professionalism that sets the standard for what non-emergency medical transportation should be. With his expertise, along with a dedicated CNA and the support of BRODA seating for maximum comfort and safety, we made sure this trip was stress-free for both the passenger and their family.

Seeing the relief and gratitude from this family at the end of the journey is why we do what we do. A huge thank you to Christopher, our CNA, and ComForCare Home Care for another job well done!

For long-distance wheelchair transportation up to 500 miles in and out of Georgia, trust WellWay to provide the highest level of care. Reach out to learn more about our services.

We are thrilled to announce the first-ever addition to the WellWay team: Christopher Ray Griffith! His arrival marks a huge milestone in our journey, and we couldn’t be more excited to have him join us.

Christopher, 51, hails from Fairmont, West Virginia, and moved to Georgia just last year to be closer to family. He brings with him over two decades of dedicated service as an EMT and Volunteer Firefighter, serving several EMS agencies and fire departments. Not only has Christopher saved lives in the field, but he’s also served as a board member and Vice President for the Valley Volunteer Fire Department, where he helped organize and fundraise for the Fire Safety House trailer to educate and protect Marion County communities.

In addition to his hands-on experience in emergency services, Christopher has a strong background as a 911 telecommuter for various counties and as a police communicator for the West Virginia State Police. His dedication to service extends deeply into his personal life as well—he cared for his parents during their illnesses, showing the same compassion and dedication that he brings to work.

Outside of work, Christopher is an avid fan of the West Virginia Mountaineers and the Pittsburgh Steelers. He loves fishing and exploring new places, and we look forward to seeing the energy and expertise he’ll bring to WellWay.

Please join us in welcoming Christopher Ray Griffith, a true public servant and an incredible addition to our team!

Recently, we had the absolute privilege of transporting Carden Wyckoff—someone who truly embodies strength, resilience, and heart. Carden, who lives with muscular dystrophy, has dedicated her life to advocating for better, more reliable, and accessible transportation for all. While many of us are waiting for the world to catch up and improve these services, Carden is one of the few who refuses to wait—she’s taking action to make that change happen now.

Her passion and determination to ensure equal access for everyone inspires us deeply, and we’re beyond grateful she trusted WellWay to be part of her journey. Carden, we respect you, we admire you, and we’re with you every step of the way.

We encourage everyone to follow Carden’s journey and support her mission by connecting with her on social media and other platforms. Let’s help amplify her message and stand with her in pushing for a more inclusive future for all!

We are so grateful to have been able to attend the Stand Up for Seniors Educational Symposium last Thursday! The resources and knowledge shared with those who attended were unbelievably valuable.

My father, Peter J. Wenzell, was a beloved and respected figure known to all he encountered. I had the privilege of witnessing a side of him that few others saw. As a former D1 collegiate ice hockey player at the University of Michigan and Michigan State University, he took a keen interest in my hockey journey. Our shared weekends at showcases, tournaments, and games not only nurtured my athletic growth but also deepened our bond.

Through my father’s health challenges, surgeries, and eventual paralysis, his unwavering support for my hockey dreams never wavered. I learned the true meaning of “character” and “integrity” as he faced adversity with grace. When the time came for me to care for him, I did so willingly. In those ten years of driving him around, I witnessed firsthand the daily struggles he endured and the meticulous care he required to prevent further discomfort.

In moments of hardship, my father transitioned from being just a dad to becoming my closest confidant and ally. Our shared experiences in the van taught me invaluable lessons in empathy and resilience.

Today, I’m officially launching WellWay in your honor. Thank you, Dad. This was never possible without you.
