Tips for Safe Wheelchair Transportation

Admit it or not, many public vehicles are not wheelchair-friendly which is why those individuals who are dependent on vehicles choose to stay at home as much as possible. As providers of wheelchair transportation services, 24 Hour Transportation Taxi Service hears you.

One might ask, how does our transportation service in California ensure the safety of our clients during transit? Here’s how:

  • Right wheelchair. We have a specialized wheelchair just for your loved ones. Any issue regarding the device can put their lives in danger. Thus, we ascertain that the wheelchair we provide can offer adequate support, security, and comfort throughout the ride.
  • Chair security. To prevent them from sliding off during the trip, we ensure that they safely settle in the chair before the ride. The pelvic belt should be placed outside the chair, and unwrapped around the frame.
  • Vehicle security. Our vehicle is designed for non-emergency medical transportation. Regardless, we know that your loved ones are in critical condition. Hence, securing them in the vehicle is vital. We ensure that their seatbelt is wrapped around their shoulder and lower pelvis instead of simply wrapping it around the abdominal area to prevent them from tipping over during breaks.
  • Head and neck support. For added security, we provide them with head support and neck collars.
  • Trained driver. As your taxi service in Santa Rosa, California, we only entrust your loved ones to drivers who have undergone proper training and who have the qualities of a good driver. Their responsibilities include securing the passengers in the chair and the vehicle itself and safely transporting them to their destinations.

Entrust your loved ones’ safety to us. Book our services today! We also offer wine tours and airport transportation in California.
