TYPES OF SENIOR RIDE SERVICE AVAILABLE 

Three types of service in the program are offered.

1. For best service, advance reservations are recommended. Call at least 3 days in advance to schedule an appointment.
2. Subscription service: If you have regular appointments, schedule a ride on a daily
   or weekly basis. You must call to cancel your appointment or your ride will automatically arrive at the scheduled time.
3. Demand response: In an emergency, you may call the same day for a ride, and you
   will be served as space allows. Every effort will be made to arrive on time and to accommodate your specific needs. All vehicles are equipped with wheelchair lifts; however, when making reservations consider that extra time may be required to
   assist wheelchair-bound and frail passengers on and off the vehicle. If you are physically disabled or frail and need assistance, you are encouraged to bring an
   escort. Drivers cannot escort you from or into any building. If there will be an escort with you, notify the dispatcher that you will need two seats when making your reservation. Because medical appointments always have priority, on occasion you may be asked to reschedule social, banking or shopping appointments to accommodate someone with an emergency medical appointment. We will do the same for you, should you have a medical emergency.
