It's for me, a 65 year old - I'm mobile. I live in Strongsville, ohio 44136. Having trouble finding a medical appt. escort. The hospital requires them to be there. All the services I see offered are just a ride to and from. I've done an exhaustive search and can't find anything. I notice Care.com but some reviews say the person many times just doesn't show or cancels last minute.
You say, "Found one however they wanted $125 for 4 hour max - not sure what they would do if MD ran late.. A last resort option." If the MD ran late, you'd pay the person more money to stay later, that's what you'd do.
You also say, "The local church will be my last resort.. Thanks." I should think you'd be thrilled to have a church member spend their time escorting you to and from a medical procedure for free.......rather than considering it a 'last resort' as you are considering the $125 fee for a 4 hr max person!
If you want this procedure done, pick one of these options & call it a day, that's my 'advice'. You've done an 'exhaustive search' so there you have it.
Good luck!
He was in the process of being told he’d have to reschedule, so of course my husband and I said we’d wait for him and drive him home.
I would think this must happen quite frequently, and I’d bet at least some of those appointments are not rescheduled.
There absolutely IS a need for this servce.
What I would do, is just get a ride there and back. When asked if you have transportation and someone to stay with you say yes. They are not going to come to your house and make sure. Just pray u have no complications.
