Getting to healthcare appointments or approved outings can become difficult when a resident no longer drives, has mobility limitations, or needs supervision outside the residence. Transportation assistance helps arrange appropriate transportation when offered so residents can attend necessary appointments and other approved destinations. For residents in Chico and nearby communities, this can reduce the practical difficulty of arranging transportation each time they need to leave the residential setting.
How It Works
Transportation assistance may address common travel needs based on what is offered and appropriate for the resident:
- Transportation can be arranged for scheduled medical appointments when this service is offered.
- Residents may receive transportation support for approved outings outside the residential setting.
- Arrangements can account for residents who need additional assistance because of mobility or cognitive limitations.
- Residents can receive help preparing to leave for scheduled transportation when assistance is needed.
- Return transportation can be arranged when applicable to the planned appointment or outing.
What to Expect
Transportation assistance is typically arranged in advance based on the destination, timing, resident’s support needs, and transportation availability. Families should confirm what transportation is offered and whether additional arrangements are needed for accompaniment, mobility support, or services outside the residence.
