Can I get help with transport to hospital appointments?

ste_r

hi all

Can I get help travelling to a hospital that’s a 40 minute drive?

I don’t drive, rely on family etc, only my next appointment no one can take me due to work etc

I have to go as I am on weekly injections for hs, arthritis.

Bio meds

If don’t go , prescriptions will stop

Can’t physically get combination or buses trains etc

Any advice appreciated

Thanks

Do you qualify for help with health costs?

Taxis are very rarely approved for patient transport unfortunately.

I'd suggest contacting the PALS department of the Hospital for further assistance.
