Service Limitations and Service Times
HCSC Transportation is a “curb to curb” service primarily for the elderly and disabled of all ages.
Due to insurance, van drivers may only assist riders on and off the lift and with securement of a mobility device. Since HCSC is not an assisted transportation service, van drivers cannot assist riders to and from the door of a location or destination due to insurance limitations. If you need assistance, you must take a family member, friend, or other caregiver with you. Please let the transportation manager know when you schedule your appointment who will be riding with you. If you ride our van for shopping, our drivers may help you take shopping bags to your porch or entrance area but they cannot leave sight of the van or enter your residence.
HCSC Transportation services operate M-F 8:00am – 3:30pm. Drivers must return to the center after their final drop-off, secure the van, and complete daily paperwork by 4pm. Transportation does not operate on major holidays , we will notify riders if the vans cannot run. Information is also posted to news agencies and on our website and face book.
HCSC does not follow the school closing schedule. While some rides may need to be cancelled due to accessibility (flooding, snow, etc.>, we will notify riders if the vans cannot run. Information is also posted to news agencies and on our website and face book.
