An assisted transportation service for Arlington senior adults, ages 60 and older, began last November. The program, featuring specially trained drivers/escorts, will provide door-to-door transportation and assistance for seniors to and from their health care appointments. Participants also may use the program to visit family members in nursing homes and assisted living facilities. Red Top Cab Company and Diamond Transportation Service will provide drivers.

This program is open to Arlington residents who are enrolled in STAR/Metro Access with a personal care attendant designation. The cost for each trip will range from no cost to $5, based on a sliding fee determined by income. In addition the rider is required to pay a $2 one-way STAR fee. Completion of a short application form and a home visit from an Arlington Agency on Aging staff member is required. For additional information, or to request an application form, call the Agency on Aging at (703) 228-5030.

For further information on transportation in other parts of the Northern Virginia Chapter territory or other community resources, please call the Chapter Helpline at (703) 359-4440 or (866) 259-0042.
