Medical Transportation

Volunteers provide rides to medical appointments from Abbotsford to neighboring communities

Medical Transportation

Medical Transportation provides safe, reliable, non-emergency transportation to those who live in Abbotsford with medical appointments outside of the city. Volunteer drivers can drive clients as far east as Chilliwack and as far west as North Vancouver. This service is dependent on the timely availability of volunteer drivers.

The program includes:

  • On-time, door to door service
  • Reliable and comfortable vehicles
  • Competent and compassionate volunteer drivers

Who is Eligible: Residents of Abbotsford

A nominal fee of $0.68 per kilometer will be charged to participants as well as any parking/other related costs.

 

To Access Medical Transportation

  • Connect with our coordinator by phone or email. You can expect a response within one week. Registration is required before using the service.
  • Please provide 4-5 days’ notice, or ideally as much notice as possible.
“If it wasn’t for this program, I wouldn’t be able to get to my specialist appointments every three months. I am so grateful!”

“Driving with this volunteer was a wonderful experience! He is a very nice guy. He has a wonderful personality. I am so glad to have met him.”

Featured Volunteer Driver – Sandy

In the past 10 years, Sandy has driven more than 100 people to hundreds of medical appointments in the Lower Mainland. He puts thought into what people need, and feels responsible for them from the time he picks them up until he drops them back home. Read More
