Travel Assistance for Seniors in WA
Care Assisted Travel Services WA
Many Perth seniors face challenges when it comes to travelling independently, whether it’s for appointments, social outings, or everyday tasks like shopping.
Limited transport options can restrict your ability to enjoy your independence and lifestyle choices, making daily activities more difficult. At St Jude’s, we aim to remove these barriers by offering care-assisted travel services, ensuring that seniors across Western Australia can reach their destinations safely and with the support they need.
Enhancing greater independence
Accompanied by an experienced support worker or nursing professional, assisted travel enhances your independence, providing assistance with diet, mobility, and personal care whilst you are out and about, allowing you to enjoy everyday activities and travel.Care assisted travel refers to a travel companion, like a nurse or support worker, accompanying someone on a trip, so that they can carry out activities that they would be unable to access on their own.
The support worker can provide transport to and from a destination and provide additional assistance with social support and personal care tasks that are required for the trip.
These journeys can be short, such as simply taking you to the shops or an appointment, or they could be for a longer holiday period.
Our care-assisted travel services may include:
- Transport for outings and errands
- Hospital, doctor and private appointments
- Family gatherings
- Weddings and funerals
- Birthdays and graduations
- Holiday companions
- Travel from rural homes to metro residences or appointments
- Transport to local community events.
