VA Medical Transportation

St. Lucie County Veteran Services provides free transportation for veterans with scheduled medical appointments to/from the West Palm Beach VA Medical Center.

A safe and comfortable ride is provided for veterans who do not have other means of travel and/or can no longer drive. Transport is provided for up to 20 passengers per day, Monday through Friday.  Veterans calling with transportation needs are scheduled on a "first come - first served" basis. Veterans must have a confirmed medical appointment between 8:30 a.m. and 12 noon prior to calling the office to request a ride. Reservations can be taken up to three weeks in advance of a confirmed appointment.  

In order to accommodate veterans throughout the County, two convenient pick up locations have been established:

St. Lucie County vans leave the West Palm Beach VA Medical Center no later than 1 p.m. for the return trip, (and may leave earlier if all passengers have completed their scheduled appointments). 

These procedures have been established in order to make the system beneficial for all concerned and may differ from those programs in other counties.
