Find out more about us by visiting our website at www.silverride.com or by calling us at 415-861-7433. SilverRide has been nationally and internationally recognized for its unique approach to helping our elderly population with their mobility issues. SilverRide was recognized by the American Society on Aging (ASA) with a Business of the Year award, and was awarded the Operator of the Year award by the Taxi, Limo and Paratransit Association (TLPA). SilverRide has also been profiled in numerous newspapers, journals and other media highlighting our personalized, tailored approach to senior transportation and mobility. SilverRide offers assistance to anyone who needs help. Whether you use a cane, walker, scooter, wheelchair – or nothing at all – we can provide full assistance to you. Whether you live in an assisted living community, an independent living community, or are aging-in-place by living in your own home, we can help. Often, SilverRide partners with senior living communities to supplement or even replace their own transportation programs. If you are a care manager, social worker, gerontologist, conservator, fiduciary, family caregiver – or just a friend who wants to help someone, SilverRide can work with you to help arrange transportation and customized outings for the person you are helping. In fact, SilverRide keeps emergency contact information for every passenger so we know who to call in addition to 911 should something happen while a client is with us. In terms of our credentials, all SilverRide drivers are covered for $1 million in primary liability insurance, and our insurance extends all the way into the home. This means that our clients are covered 100% of the time they are with us, whether that be in the car or outside of the car. All of our drivers get SilverRide insurance cards to keep in their vehicles so they don’t have to show their own insurance policies in case of an accident. SilverRide drivers are trained in the body mechanics of how to physically assist clients, along with being trained in all the issues that clients can have, such as blindness, being deaf, having tremors, dementia, alzheimer’s, etc. Drivers are fingerprinted, background-checked and drug tested. We recognize that frail seniors are also vulnerable, so we do everything in our power to make sure they are safe and comforted while with us.
