Van Transportation is a public transit program that offers non-emergency medical transportation services for older adults. This program provides convenient transportation via taxis or vans and requires riders to schedule their rides in advance, allowing for seamless planning of appointments and errands. Riders have the option to pay for their rides through insurance, vouchers, coupons, donations, or a membership fee, making the service accessible to a wide range of individuals. One of the key features of Van Transportation is its paratransit service, catering to older adults with mobility challenges by providing door-to-door or curb-to-curb transportation. The program offers flexibility in payment methods, including Medicaid, checks, credit cards, or cash. Pricing for rides is affordable, with a suggested donation of $5 for round trips in-town and higher rates for out-of-town trips. Additionally, the program allows for shared rides, enabling multiple riders to travel together and split the cost, promoting a sense of community and affordability. Riders can enjoy the convenience of on-demand scheduling or book rides in advance, ensuring a stress-free and reliable transportation solution for their needs. Van Transportation prioritizes the comfort and safety of its riders, with drivers who are willing to wait for passengers during errands or appointments. Service animals are welcome on board, and the program strives to provide a comfortable and inclusive transportation experience for older adults in the community.
