What the caregiver does
- Doctor visits: regular doctors, specialists, labs, dialysis, therapy
- Errands: grocery store, pharmacy, bank
- Outings: senior centers, church, family events
- Help in and out of the car
- Help at the visit: checking in, talking with staff
- A report to family after each visit
What we never do: This is a ride with a helper, not a rideshare. We are a non-medical agency. Caregivers share what happened at the visit. They never make or explain medical decisions.
Who this helps
- People who stopped driving but have regular visits, like dialysis
- People who use a walker or wheelchair and need help moving
- People with early memory loss who need a guide at the visit
- Working families who cannot leave for every appointment
