Many of our clients face major obstacles that prevent them from accessing health care–one of those is transportation. These challenges prevent clients from receiving the care they need to maintain a healthy life. Our new rapid health ride program assists patients in need of immediate healthcare, addressing transportation as a critical healthcare need. In 2022, more than 3,750 patients were transported from their homes to urgent health care visits at Care Resource, an increase of 60% over the previous year. The need for urgent health care rides far exceeds the funding available for this service.
