Travel Assistance Services for Seniors
Care Assisted Travel Services
Many seniors face challenges when it comes to travelling independently, whether it’s to attend appointments, attending social outings, or do the shopping.
Limited transport options can restrict your freedom to enjoy your independence and lifestyle choices and add difficulty to everyday tasks. At St Jude’s, we aim to eliminate these barriers by providing care-assisted travel services, ensuring our clients can reach their destinations with safety and support.
Supporting Greater Independence
With the support of a compassionate support worker or nursing professional, assisted travel enhances your independence by providing assistance with diet, mobility, and personal care while you are out and about, allowing you to enjoy everyday activities and travel with ease.Care-assisted travel involves a travel companion, like a nurse or support worker, accompanying an individual on their trip to help them engage in activities they might not be able to access independently.
The support worker can provide transportation to and from a destination or offer assistance with social support and personal care tasks to support you on the journey.
These trips can range from short outings, such as visits to the shops or medical appointments, to longer holiday excursions.
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.
