M7’s Handicap Accessible Transportation: Helping Connecticuters with Their Health

 

Imagine an aging parent or someone you know who needs a wheelchair to get around. Sometimes, it’s really difficult for seniors and disabled patients to go see the doctor or even get to pharmacies, run errands, or spend much-needed time with loved ones. Local public transportation just isn’t easy to use — and can sometimes be unsafe due to lack of features for personal accessibility needs. This makes it tough to stay healthy and happy.

 

This is where M7’s handicap accessible rides and local programs come in.

The Challenge of Accessible Transportation

For many of Connecticut’s older adults and those with disabilities, getting to regular doctor’s appointments and recurring tests can be a deeply daunting experience. This means missing appointments or having to wait longer for help. This impacts their overall condition, making them more aware of their disabilities, hence making it worse for their health.
