Transportation and escort

A ride is not the hard part. The hard part is getting from the front door to the car, into a waiting room, through the appointment, and home again — with someone who remembers what the doctor said.

Our caregivers stay through the visit. They take notes if you want them to, and they call the family afterwards so nothing gets lost between the office and the kitchen table.

What is included

• Door-through-door escort, not just a drop-off
• Medical and specialist appointments
• Dialysis and infusion visits
• Physical and occupational therapy
• Pharmacy and grocery trips
• Church and social outings
• Notes from the appointment for family
• Help in and out of the vehicle

This is for people who

• No longer drive safely
• Get anxious or confused in medical settings
• Need a steady arm on kerbs and in corridors
• Have family who cannot take time off work
• Miss appointments for lack of a ride

Transportation pairs well with personal care and companion visits, and it is often what keeps chronic conditions from turning into hospital admissions.
