After most surgeries and outpatient procedures, you cannot drive yourself home — and a taxi or rideshare isn't designed for someone still groggy from anesthesia. DachiPlus provides post-procedure transportation that handles the realities of post-op recovery: patient, unhurried drivers, room for crutches, walkers, and medical equipment, caregiver companion seating, and direct coordination with hospital discharge teams.
For patients in Babylon, DachiPlus provides dependable post-surgery transport. From Babylon, that usually means trips to Good Samaritan, Southside and South Oaks, roughly 10 minutes away. Covered by Medicaid through MAS, or pay privately at (516) 754-7777.
In Babylon, post-surgery transport most often serves outpatient surgery patients (knee scopes, cataract surgery, colonoscopies) and recently discharged inpatients heading home. Every trip includes same-day booking available.
