Requested Transportation To My Next Social Worker Appointment
[ Tuesday January 24th 2023 at 4:19 pm ]

My family doctor office is located two blocks from my home. I've simply been able to drive myself there using my power wheelchair. A major snow storm is going to be passing over the area causing snow on the roads that exceed the design specifications of my power wheelchair. I've booked a para transit vehicle to take me to my next medical appointment with my social worker. I do have the option for the appointment to be video based or over the phone when adverse weather prevents me from attending in person. I find the non verbal part of communication (body language and facial expressions) are so important. I find I get more out of the appointments in person as well as building trust with the medical providers.
