Such as to the grocery store, social engagements, etc ? I know there are programs that offer transportation for medical appointments, but I understand they are limited when it comes to catering to a specific schedule. What are the best options for those who have limited mobility, can't get to a bus or train station, and don't have family members to drive them around? Any information on specific companies/agencies that serve seniors and your experiences good/bad would be helpful. Thank you.
Consider how the company does pick up. Do they knock at the door, or just wait at the curb? Do they help carry bags or purchases inside? Will they help with any mobility equipment? (i.e. walker or wheelchair.)
A home care helper is a good choice for transportation for people who need assistance with planning, being ready, and mobility assistance.
She also thought she was not going to have to pay the hourly rate for him to wait for her while she was at the grocery. She was wrong.
