Many wheelchair users travel comfortably in a standard sedan or SUV — they simply need a driver who is patient, trained in safe transfers, and will handle the wheelchair. DachiPlus transports passengers who use manual or folding wheelchairs and can transfer into the vehicle seat. Your wheelchair is folded and loaded securely in the trunk, then returned to you at your destination. Drivers assist from your front door through the facility entrance and back. For patients who cannot transfer out of their wheelchair and require an in-vehicle securement system (ambulette), please call us — we can help coordinate through Medicaid ambulette services or a licensed WAV provider.
