Transport to Appointments
At Alpha Support at Home, we understand the importance of staying connected with your community. However, there may come a time when you are unable to drive, whether due to surrendering your driver's license or a loss of confidence in your driving abilities. Our compassionate caregivers are here to provide senior transportation services.
Our transportation service goes beyond just driving; it is delivered by certified caregivers who are ready to assist you every step of the way. We can assist you in getting prepared for your outing, accompany you during your journey, and offer support as needed. This could include helping you enter and exit the vehicle, carrying your groceries, or aiding with any mobility devices you rely on.
Whether you have a medical appointment, a social event, or simply need to visit the local shopping center, we are here to assist you. A member of our dedicated Client Support Team will help you coordinate your transportation needs.
