Transportation
The Camarillo Health Care District provides transportation for non-emergency medical appointments, Senior Nutrition Program, Nail Care Clinic, Adult Day Service Programs and to Kaiser Hospital in Woodland Hills.
Drivers are trained in CPR and First Aid, and have additional training in transporting frail, elderly and mobility-challenged riders. Our vehicles are equipped with hydraulic lifts that can accommodate wheelchair clients, oxygen canisters, and other assistive mobility devices. If you require wheelchair transport, a standard wheelchair can be provided during your ride. Please inform the scheduling office of your needs when you make your reservation.
Our vehicles are not equipped to carry electric wheelchairs, scooters, or other similarly heavy chairs.
Through a collaborative partnership with the Ventura County Transportation Commission, a special rate applies for ADA-certified riders for trips to the Conejo Valley.
