    Description


    You will be operating a wheelchair van for the entirety of your shift bringing customers to and from scheduled, non-emergency medical appointments (such as child day-program facilities, dialysis, chemotherapy, or vision, dental, or general wellness visits).

    Our customer base consists of everyone including young children riding alone to their day-programs, the physically or cognitively impaired, and the elderly.

    It is important that you can interact in a friendly and helpful manner with people of various ages, capabilities, and backgrounds.

    You will be formally trained in STS (Specialized Transportation Services) classes in-house (or provide your own certificates) including Defensive Driving, Passenger Assistance, Abuse Prevention, and First Aid.

    You will need to have a smart phone with data capabilities to run a scheduling and dispatching app as well as Google or Apple Maps for most of the day.

    General familiarity with smartphone app operation as well as doing general internet searches from a smartphone will make your job easier.

    This position most commonly transports passengers with mobility impairments that use assistance devices such as wheelchairs, scooters, walkers, or canes.
