For persons recovering from surgery or unable to drive, trying to get to places you want to with ease can be strenuous. This is where incidental transportation comes in. To make attending medical appointments, grocery shopping, social events, and other important engagements easier for elders.
Under incidental transportation and appointment escort services, caregivers or transportation providers assist seniors in completing their errands. This ensures that seniors can access fresh groceries, household supplies, and other essential items, promoting independence and maintaining an active lifestyle.
Our trained caregivers at Ezra Home Care provide a wide scope of specialized services that help transport the elderly and disabled.

Our caregivers undergo a rigorous screening process including a criminal background investigation, certification or licensing verification (in applicable positions), and a thorough reference check. The caregivers that we select are all people that we would want to take care of our own loved ones.
First we will conduct a free Safety and Needs Assessment of your loved one or of your current situation. The Safety and Needs Assessment will allow us to customize a care schedule and determine the type of caregiver your loved one or you may need. Then we will give you and your family the chance to meet with several caregivers that match your needs and schedule.
If you find, for any reason, that you would prefer to try another caregiver we will find a replacement for you.
No problem. At Ezra Home Care, we have no minimum hour requirements.
Absolutely. Many of our clients need more care than an assisted living community can provide but do not want to live in a nursing home. As long as your community approves, we can supplement your care services so that you can remain as independent as possible.
We are happy to assist you no matter where you live. If you find that you’d like a companion to talk to, an escort to an appointment or any type of assistance beyond your nursing home’s services, we are there for you.
Private pay means that services are paid for using personal income or assets—without aid from insurance or government benefits. We would be happy to discuss pricing details with you directly.
Ezra Home Care is large enough to handle all of your home care needs, yet small enough to give you the personalized service and care you deserve.

We are not bound by territory, and are capable of providing continued care even when our clients are being relocated to another areas. Our decision-making process is more efficient than that of a franchise because all of our decisions are made right in the office, without the need for a comparatively lengthy corporate approval process. Schedule a free Needs and Safety Assessment and you’ll see exactly what we mean.

“After hospice put me in the horrible position I called Ezra in a panic. They were kind and compassionate and moved mountains to get me a trained aide at the last moment. Everyone I was in contact with was kind and sympathetic and called after to offer condolences. I was impressed with everyone I spoke to and met. I would highly recommend them.”
