DIAL-A-DRIVER, INC., a non-profit transportation agency for the eld- erly and those with disabilities, has recently announced its plans to expand its services to the Trucksville, Shavertown and Dal- las areas. DIAL-A-DRIVER, INC., utilizes volunteers to transport elderly patients to their medical appoint- ments and other top priority needs. In the past, DIAL-A-DRIVER, INC, has provided this same service to Back Mountain residents on a limited basis due to a lack of vol- unteer drivers from those commu- nities. Recently however, more volunteers have been recruited from that area enabling the or- ganization to provide more cover- age. DIAL-A-DRIVER, INC., offers this service on a donation basis. Eligibility is determined by case- by-case, primarily based upon need. Once someone is approved onto the program, at least a week's notice of a medical appointment is required in order that a volunteer can be assigned to that particular trip. The granting of requests is dependent solely on the number of available volunteers. Anyone 60 years or older who has no other transportation means available may call the DIAL-A-DRIVER, INC., office at 287-9809.
