<6 The Dallas Post Dallas, PA Wednesday, March 1, 1995 ars LL » Volunteer drivers needed Many cancer patients in Dallas need to get to a hospital in Wilkes- Barre for treatments but are not well enough to drive. Some have relatives and friends, but some- times it is impossible to find someone to drive them for treat- ment. Volunteer drivers in the Back Mountain are needed for the American Cancer Society's “Road to Recovery” program to pick the patients up at their home, drive them to a treatment center and then take them home. The responsibilities of the driv- ers are minimal but extremely important. The driver should call the patient 24 hours in advance to let the patient know when to expect them and to receive any special directions. Only patients who are going to a medical facility and are able to walk may use this service. The driver should also become famil- iar with the route to the medical facility and their parking policy. The driver should allow 20-30 minutes for the treatment at the hospital. If the patient becomes seriously ill for some reason at the hospital, the volunteer will not be responsible for driving the patient home. These responsibilities become worth the time for the cancer patient. The volunteer driver becomes part of the patient's re- covery and leads them on the road to better health. Those who would like to be- come volunteer drivers in the Dallasa area may call the Wyo- ming Valley Unit of the American Cancer Society at 825-7763 for more information.
