To access this program, older adults are able to schedule rides in advance, typically requiring at least a day's notice, and have the option to pay for services through insurance, vouchers, donations, or credit card payments. Additionally, Assisted Transportation is a paratransit service, ensuring accessibility and support for riders with mobility challenges or disabilities. Riders can expect assistance with packages or bags and are welcome to bring service animals along for the journey. Whether passengers need curb-to-curb or door-to-door transportation, Assisted Transportation strives to accommodate their needs. With the option for shared rides, fixed route services via bus or train, and drivers who can wait during appointments or errands, this program offers a comprehensive solution for older adults seeking reliable and inclusive transportation options.
