Transportation & Errands
When it's not safe for your parent to drive anymore, what do you do? Having the conversation where you propose to take the keys away can be one of the hardest talks you ever have with your parent. Having a solution ready can make things go much more smoothly. The caring professionals at Seniors First Home Care are pleased to offer driver services for your parent. Our caregiver can take your parent to any appointment, errand or social outing in your parent's own vehicle.

Seniors who do not drive or are becoming less skilled may require transportation in order to have access to medical care, shopping, and even social activities. Part of overall elder care means having access to transportation, which gives elderly parents the ability to maintain a sense of independence, avoid isolation, and in many cases avoid the need for a nursing home.
What are some of the ways to tell if your elderly parent is at the beginning stages or isn't capable of driving anymore? Look for clues such as unexplained dents on the car, increased traffic tickets, or unexplained lengthy absences on what could be described as short trips. When these types of issues arise, it is best to take action sooner rather than later. It may be important to talk to your medical professional about this issue for guidance.
Transportation may be included as a part of any other service offered by Seniors First Home Care, or may be used as a stand-alone service.
