Transportation
Sometimes a senior may be able to take care of most of their needs, but may not be safe to drive. We can refer care providers that will transport to Dr. Appts, Hairdresser, Grocery Shopping, Pet Groomer, the Airport, or any place you or your loved one needs to go. Care providers can drive the client’s car or their own car and we verify that the care provider has auto insurance and we run checks on their driving records.
