- W1829722139 abstract "Accessible transportation has been identified by many agencies serving seniors and persons with disabilities as the major issue in improving the access to programs and services and in improving quality of life. Physical activity, social contact and a sense of being a part of the community contribute to the health of individuals which is fostered by transportation. Family, agencies, volunteer transportation organizations and public transit provide a wide range of travel options. The number of seniors in the community is growing and the social service network is focusing on assisting seniors and people with disabilities to remain in their homes longer, with fewer entering institutional living. This contributes to the growing transportation demands. Over the past few years, BC Transit and Farwest handyDART have been seeking opportunities to provide more trips for an increasing number of eligible clients under constrained funding. At the same time many agencies and service providers serving seniors and persons with disabilities, have been trying to find ways to improve transportation services for their clients. Several agencies in the region funded a study to determine the status of transportation resources in the region and to identify deficiencies for users. This paper discusses activities undertaken to determine the status of transportation resources, identify opportunities to improve service and presents some transportation coordination models and challenges for implementation. The study determined that there were a number of transportation providers in the transportation region including public transportation, private, volunteer organizations and community organizations. Discussions with users and service providers indicated that more service was needed, and that efforts to coordinate service delivery should be considered." @default.
