IMPROVING ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE AND SUPPORTING THE HEALTH/WELL-BEING OF PEOPLE IN OUR RURAL COMMUNITY.

IN 1999 THE HEALTHCARE CONSORTIUM FORMED A PROGRAM CALLED THE CHILDREN AND ADULTS RURAL TRANSPORTATION SERVICE, OR CARTS. THE PROGRAM WAS CREATED TO RESPOND TO A NEED OF MANY COLUMBIA COUNTY RESIDENTS FOR TRANSPORTATION TO AND FROM MEDICAL APPOINTMENTS, THIS NEED PARTICULARLY ACUTE IN THE MORE RURAL AREAS OF THE COUNTY, BUT COULD NEVERTHELESS BE FOUND IN ALL PARTS OF IT, FOR ANY NUMBER OF REASONS. SOMETIMES, INDIVIDUALS LACK A VEHICLE. OTHER TIMES, THEY LACK THE FINANCIAL RESOURCES TO MAINTAIN IT, FILL ITS TANK, OR PAY ITS TOLLS. AND IN STILL OTHER INSTANCES, EVEN THOSE WITH A VEHICLE IN GOOD WORKING ORDER AND THE RESOURCES TO OPERATE IT NO LONGER FEEL COMFORTABLE DRIVING DUE TO THEIR AGE, AN ILLNESS OR INJURY. IN ALL OF THESE CASES, CARTS HAS BEEN THERE TO HELP. SINCE THE PROGRAM'S INCEPTION, WE HAVE SERVICE NEARLY 4,000 COLUMBIA COUNTY RESIDENTS, PROVIDED OVER 195,457 TRIPS TO MEDICAL APPOINTMENTS, AND COVERED MORE THAN 2,718,000 MILES. IN 2020 ALONE, WE SERVED 522 UNIQUE CLIENTS, PROVIDED 14,457 TRIPS AND COVERED 218,928 MILES
