Careers at LumityCare

Help us close the transport gap.

LumityCare is a growing Chicagoland medical transport company built around a simple idea: when patients can’t get to their appointments, their care suffers. The people behind the wheel and behind the dispatch desk are the reason that gap closes. If that resonates — we’d love to know you.

Why Work With Us

What we’re building — and why someone would want to be part of it.

Compensation matters. So does the kind of place you spend your working hours. Here’s how LumityCare will differ from a typical transport job.

Mission you can feel

Every ride is a step toward a patient’s better outcome. You’ll know the names of the people you’re helping — this isn’t anonymous gig work.

Real schedule flexibility

Our specialty is evenings, weekends, and after-hours. Great for people who want consistent shifts in those windows — not chaotic on-demand work.

Owner-accountable culture

No call center. No app to argue with. A direct line to the owner if something isn’t working — for you or for a passenger. Issues get heard.

Local Chicagoland roots

You’re driving in your own region, for your own neighbors. No long-haul out-of-state trips unless you want one occasionally.

Roles We’re Growing Into

The roles we’ll be hiring for as we scale.

As LumityCare grows, two roles will drive most of the hiring. If either describes the kind of work you do well, we’d like to talk.

Drivers

Ambulatory & wheelchair-accessible

The face of LumityCare. You’ll be the person greeting a passenger at the door, helping them safely into the vehicle, getting them to their appointment on time, and back home with dignity intact.

What you’d do

  • Door-to-door pickups and drop-offs across Greater Chicagoland
  • Help with mobility assistance — walkers, wheelchairs, transfers
  • Communicate clearly with passengers, families, and the dispatch team
  • Keep your vehicle (ours or yours, depending on role) clean and inspection-ready
  • Treat every passenger with patience — especially older or anxious riders

What we look for

  • Clean driving record & valid IL driver’s license
  • Comfort with mobility assistance and elderly/frail passengers
  • Willingness to complete background check, drug screen, and CPR/First-Aid training (we cover certification costs)
  • Reliable, on-time, and professional in appearance and communication
  • Availability for evening, weekend, or after-hours shifts

Dispatch / Booking Coordinator

Schedules, families, drivers

The hub of the operation. You’ll take calls, build the daily schedule, keep drivers and families in the loop, and solve the small problems before they become big ones.

What you’d do

  • Answer incoming calls and emails from families, facilities, and Care Coordinators
  • Build the daily route schedule and assign drivers
  • Send written quotes, pickup confirmations, and ride-completed notifications
  • Handle reschedules, cancellations, and same-day requests with care
  • Be the calm voice when something unexpected happens during a ride

What we look for

  • Excellent phone presence — warm, clear, patient with older callers
  • Strong organizational instincts; comfortable juggling multiple riders and timelines
  • Comfortable with digital tools (scheduling, email, basic spreadsheets)
  • Empathy with medical patients and family caregivers
  • Healthcare or scheduling experience a plus, not required
Universal Traits

What we look for in everyone who joins.

Specific role requirements vary. These four traits are non-negotiable across every position.

Compassion

Patient with frail, anxious, or cognitively-impaired passengers and their families.

Reliability

You show up when you say you will. Punctuality and follow-through are foundational.

Communication

Clear, calm, and respectful with passengers, families, and the rest of the team.

Integrity

Background check, drug screen, and a commitment to HIPAA-respecting professionalism.
