Transportation Planning for Fort Belvoir Patients, Families and Nearby Residents

Fort Belvoir is a major military installation in Fairfax County with healthcare services on post as well as connections to medical care throughout Northern Virginia.

UniqueHands provides pre-arranged private-pay non-emergency medical transportation for ambulatory passengers, wheelchair users, stretcher passengers, older adults, hospital discharge trips and longer-distance medical travel, subject to passenger needs, access requirements and availability.

Important Fort Belvoir Access Information

Confirm Installation Access Before Scheduling an On-Post Pickup or Drop-Off

Fort Belvoir requires identification and authorization for installation entry. Current Fort Belvoir rules also place restrictions on commercial ride-share, taxi and for-hire drivers who do not already hold qualifying Department of Defense credentials.

Because gate access can affect whether a vehicle may enter the installation, passengers, families or sponsors should confirm current Fort Belvoir access requirements before requesting an on-post pickup or drop-off. UniqueHands cannot guarantee installation entry where required credentials, sponsorship or authorization are not available.
