Helping Your Loved One Be Where They Want To Be
Safe rides and steady support so life keeps moving beyond the front door.
What Happens When Driving Is No Longer an Option
Losing the ability to drive can be a big emotional blow to many people, as they can feel they are no longer independent. Families can struggle to help them with transportation because they have to be somewhere else, like work or school.
Medical or entertainment outings essentially need transportation, if it isn’t provided by a family member, and the senior is not able to do it themselves, missed appointments and loss of relationships can be consequences.
Preserve Home Care offers senior transportation in Beverly Hills, Westside Los Angeles, Palm Springs, and the Coachella Valley, along with help with errands, so your loved one can stay active, supported, and conn ected.
Transportation To Medical and Therapy Appointments
Is not only about the drive to the medical facility, finding the right office, and understanding everything in the visits is also important and something that the caregiver can provide help with.
Our caregivers provide non – emergency transportation for seniors and stay by your loved one’s side throughout the appointment. This can include:
Helping them get ready and out the door on time.
Escorting them safely to and from the vehicle.
Accompanying them into the building and to the correct office.
Staying in the waiting area or in the room when appropriate and requested.
Taking simple notes or reminders for the family when allowed.
Help With Groceries, Pharmacy Trips, and Everyday Errands
Everyday errands are important. If a senior is not capable of doing them alone and family members can’t help them at any time, our caregivers are there to help. Caregivers provide help with errands for elderly clients by:
Driving to and from the grocery store, pharmacy, bank, or post office.
Assisting with shopping lists and product choices, while respecting preferences and budgets.
Carrying bags, lifting heavier items, and organizing purchases at home.
Making sure medications are picked up and placed in the usual spot, ready for the family’s or nurse’s setup.
Visits with friends or family members.
Attendance at religious services or community gatherings.
Trips to parks, cafes, or favorite local spots.
Special events such as small celebrations or recitals.
Social and Community Outings
Social relationships are crucial to keep your loved one’s mood high, going out of the house and meeting their fri ends to converse, and feeling a different environment outside their home can be facilitated by our caregivers. Our transportation services also support:
