Whether you need transportation to an appointment, weekly grocery runs, or the occasional prescription pickup, Lektro Services is here for you. We take pride in helping patients run errands and keep up their commitments in a safe and reassuring way.
Transportation is essential and yet, it is one thing that people often take for granted. But for those who are older, disabled, and unable to drive, it is often hard to obtain. It’s estimated that over 600,000 people stop driving every year and that 1 in 5 older adults don’t drive. While options like public transportation for seniors, taxi for elderly, and rideshare services are available, accessing and paying for them are two common reasons why people need this service.
The Importance of Transportation Services
People need reliable transportation for seniors that they can count on. Lektro Services Home Health Care believes that seniors and disabled clients in Raleigh and surrounding areas of North Carolina deserve to have transportation services that they can trust. Being able to go places without being behind-the-wheel gives clients a true sense of independence that not being able to drive can take away or limit. We offer our clients the ability to:
- Attend medical appointments
- Go shopping
- Run errands
- Visit family or friends
- Go to an event
Trust and reliability are important when it comes to transportation. Lektro Services Home Health Care puts transportation service providers through rigorous screenings. This includes examining their driving record thoroughly and making sure that their license and insurance policies are current with no holds. Finally, we make sure transportation providers undergo training specific to our agency so that our clients get to their destination safely.
Errands
Sometimes leaving the house isn’t possible to accomplish important errands. Our errands service bridges that gap between family and friends who shop and run errands for clients and using expensive app-based services. Lektro Services Home Health Care Services helps clients with:
- Grocery shopping
- Going to the post office
- Picking up prescriptions
- Picking up household or pet supplies
Our errand services for seniors also include dropping off items at the door or putting items away for clients depending on the preferences of the client. Every member of our errand-running service undergoes the same screening and training as our transportation team to make sure they are prepared to provide the highest level of service possible to our senior and disabled clients.
