Job description


Wheelchair Van Transportation
Rewarding Career working with the senior population to drive safely to & from appointments
A wheelchair transport specialist provides transportation services for a disabled person. Using a van that's equipped with a lift and a mechanism to secure a wheelchair, the transport specialist wheels the patient to the van, safely raises the patient into the van on the lift, secures the patient's wheelchair and transports the patient to her destination. Upon arriving at the destination, the specialist detaches the wheelchair security device, safely lowers the patient out of the van using the lift, and wheels the patient to her destination.
Van Care
Wheelchair transport specialists care for the vans they drive. They clean and vacuum the interiors and ensure that all specialized equipment, such as wheelchair lifts, are in proper working order.
Transport specialists also wash and polish the outside of the vans to keep them clean and attractive. They may take a van to a mechanic for routine maintenance or when the specialized wheelchair equipment doesn't function properly.
