Non Emergency Transportation Services: Discounted Rides for Lucas County Seniors with Black & White Transportation
According to Transportation for America, 79% of seniors in the US aged 65 and older live in suburban and rural areas that heavily rely on cars, where public transportation options are limited or nonexistent. Access is necessary for seniors to get to essential services like healthcare.
In Lucas County, seniors face significant challenges when attending medical appointments and managing their transportation needs. 16.71% of the population is 65 and older, representing a substantial portion of residents who may rely on accessible transportation services due to mobility issues.
Mobility issues, lack of accessible ride options, and the cost of services can make routine tasks, like visiting the doctor, difficult. That’s where Black & White Transportation steps in, offering discounted non emergency transportation services to seniors through our Lucas County Senior Transportation Program.
Why Seniors Need Non Emergency Transportation Services for Regular Medical Appointments
Many older adults can no longer drive themselves or rely on available family and friends to get them to necessary appointments. For these seniors, missing medical visits isn’t just inconvenient; it may be a severe health risk. Non Emergency Medical Transportation (NEMT) offers a crucial solution, ensuring seniors can get to their healthcare providers on time, every time.
