During a routine transport, New Jersey driver supported a pregnant passenger who went into labor

Modivcare Inc. (the “Company” or “Modivcare”) (Nasdaq: MODV), a technology-enabled healthcare services company that provides a platform of integrated supportive care solutions focused on improving health outcomes, is proud to recognize New Jersey transportation provider, Joyful Medical Transportation, LLC, for its dedication to serving its members.

In October 2024, Joyful Medical Transportation went above and beyond to care for a member who went into labor during a scheduled routine non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT) ride. Once alerted, driver Brandon Gaston took action to quickly redirect to the nearest hospital, arriving at the facility in time for hospital staff to assist in a safe and successful delivery. This trip showcases the provider’s outstanding dedication to ensuring Modivcare members can access the care they need, even in an unpredictable circumstance.

“We commend Brandon for his quick thinking and calm demeanor that helped display our team's unwavering commitment to care,” said Moses Adedeji, owner of Joyful Medical Transportation. “His actions are a powerful example of the dedication our team brings to serving our New Jersey members every day as not just transportation providers, but as trusted partners in their care journey.”

Joyful Medical Transportation has served its community in partnership with Modivcare since 2023, operating with four vehicles to facilitate transportation for underserved populations. Modivcare serves more than 2 million New Jersey residents with its NEMT services and has managed the program for the state since 2009.

“This scenario speaks volumes about the attentiveness of a driver during a routine ride that turned emergent,” said Leroy Boone, Modivcare’s Senior Director of Transportation Operations, New Jersey. “Joyful Medical Transportation’s swift, safe, and compassionate action ensured both the mother and baby received the critical care they needed in time. We’re proud to have a team that prioritizes the well-being of every member and embodies our mission to connect people with the care they need.”
