AMT Driver — Ambulatory

Join Ride With Alliance Dispatch as an ambulatory AMT driver serving patients across the south suburbs of Chicago. You'll operate a sedan or SUV, set your own schedule, and help riders get to the medical appointments and care destinations that matter most.



Job Overview

Ride With Alliance is hiring Ambulatory RWA Drivers based at our headquarters in Olympia Fields, IL, to serve patients across the south suburbs of Chicago. You will transport patients who can walk independently or with minimal assistance to medical appointments, dialysis sessions, therapy visits, and other healthcare destinations.

Ambulatory drivers operate a sedan or SUV and provide curb-to-curb, door-to-door, or hand-to-hand service depending on each patient’s mobility level. This role is ideal for compassionate, reliable drivers who want flexible scheduling and meaningful work helping people access the care they need.

Olympia Fields is Ride With Alliance’s home base. Drivers based here benefit from strong trip density in nearby communities including Flossmoor, Homewood, Matteson, Richton Park, Park Forest, and beyond.

About Ride With Alliance Dispatch

Ride With Alliance Dispatch is a non-emergency medical transportation provider serving riders, families, healthcare facilities, and care teams across Greater Chicagoland. We specialize in safe, scheduled, and assisted rides for seniors, wheelchair users, disabled riders, and medically dependent passengers who need more than a standard curbside pickup

Every trip RWA handles, whether it's a dialysis run, a therapy visit, a hospital discharge, or a daily mobility need, is planned around the rider's safety, comfort, timing, and level of assistance required. We match each rider to the right driver, the right vehicle, and the right support level before anyone gets in the car.

As a driver with RWA, you're not just completing trips. You're the reason a senior makes it to their appointment, a wheelchair user gets home safely, and a family has one less thing to worry about. That's the kind of work we do and the kind of driver we're looking for.
