Transportation Services
Transportation is a necessity and a particular challenge for those living in rural areas.
ROSSS offers transportation services for medical appointments, or for personal, social and basic shopping trips. Please note that during busy times, priority is given to medical appointments. We also offer wheelchair transportation.
We employ screened and trained volunteers and staff drivers to help you reach your destination safely
Are You Eligible?
Services are available to seniors 55+, and adults with disabilities. Clients must be able to transfer into a vehicle safely and independently, or with minimal assistance (such as an arm for stability). Our drivers are not equipped or trained to provide weight-bearing support and are not permitted to lift or transfer clients.
Please note: This service is dependent on driver and vehicle availability. Requests for transportation must be made a minimum of 7 days in advance to allow us the opportunity to accommodate your drive. ROSSS is not an emergency transportation service provider.
Note that all new clients must undergo a telephone assessment prior to receiving transportation services.
For more information, please call 613-692-4697 ext. 240 or email info@rosss.ca.
