About long distance rides in Murrieta
Some appointments are worth driving for. Sub-specialty care in Los Angeles, major surgery at a UCLA or USC facility, treatment trials at UC Irvine or City of Hope, or a family transfer to a hospital in the Inland Empire - patients and families call DayLight because they want the same trusted team, no matter how long the drive. We quote long-distance trips by route, time, and required vehicle, and always confirm the full cost before the day of travel.
Murrieta (serving zip codes 92562, 92563) is a core coverage area for DayLight. Murrieta is just north of Temecula in southwest Riverside County, and a routine run for our long-distance NEMT service. DayLight provides wheelchair, ambulatory, and gurney transportation between Murrieta and the major hospitals across San Diego County.
Long-distance trips are planned carefully. We build in bathroom and stretch breaks for ambulatory patients, coordinate with destination facilities for arrival logistics, and use two drivers on the longest gurney trips where applicable. Oxygen, positioning, and family ride-along needs are all accommodated when planned in advance.
