Accompanied Transport and Volunteer Driving Service

 

Accompanied transportation is a service in which a volunteer driver as part of the activities of a community and volunteer organization (the CABMN), duly recognized by the Agence de la santé et des services sociaux and under the regulations stipulated by the FCABQ regarding this service, is as its name indicates a service assuring the accompaniment of any person in need of physical support, comfort or supervision who cannot find the necessary resources in his or her entourage. This service responds first and foremost to the person’s need for transportation and support.

 

The definition of accompaniment is: to accompany someone to go where he/she is going and at the same time giving the necessary support to the person.

 

The driver is expected to remain with the client (or outside should covid measures continue) during the duration of the appointment. 

Being a volunteer driver means your time is voluntary, however you are reimbursed by the client or a determined organization at a fixed rate per km.
