Why Jackie started First Elite Med
"Previously, I was working for a transportation company that didn't put the patient first. I wanted to start my own company to bring true patient care back to transportation. We respect the patients we transport and take time to ensure that they are treated with the love and kindness they deserve." Jackie Sloop
