Transportation Options
Many social needs are met through driving. People who live
alone and no longer drive may feel isolated. Arrange for
frequent visits, and plan outings with friends and family
that will help the person remain socially active. Family
members, neighbors and caregivers can provide transportation
to appointments and errands. Explore options to have groceries
or prescriptions delivered. The local senior center may
offer a shuttle service. For resources in your community,
call the Area
Agencies on Aging (AAA) at 1 (800) 282-8096.
