TransitCare is a not-for-profit organisation providing a range of services to seniors, people with disabilities, those who have difficulty getting around and to eligible clients in Brisbane South, Logan, Redlands, Gold Coast, Townsville, Cairns and surrounding areas.
Our fleet of vehicles provides door-to-door transport to people in local communities who are unable to get out and about.
We also offer a Social Support programme for those looking to enjoy some time away from home.
We understand that you prefer to live independently, surrounded by friendly faces, local shops and a familiar environment. We also know that there may be a time that you are no longer able to drive, and that relying on family and friends to get around can be difficult. People often ask if they can travel with us even if they still have their own car and drive around their area. The answer is YES!
Even if you feel confident driving yourself locally, you can still use the services of TransitCare to travel further afield. We will support your independence and connect you to your local community. We are here to help you stay connected to your community, ensuring that you can continue to visit your family and friends, get to your appointments and keep up with your social activities.
People use TransitCare services when driving a car is a chore, or no longer even possible. Some have a disability or condition that prevents them from driving. Others prefer to no longer travel on major roads or by public transport. Other people travel with us if they need to attend one of the major hospitals for an appointment, as the cost of parking can be unaffordable and the drive there challenging. The public face of TransitCare is undoubtedly our bright and distinctive Community Flyers. This fleet of fully customised vehicles includes cars, wheelchair accessible vehicles and buses.
This service is pre-booked, door-to-door, and sometimes shared, allowing you to travel to the bank or post office, hospital and medical appointments, the pharmacy, shopping, social and recreational outings, the gym, swimming or the library, the hairdresser, veterinary appointments, or on group outings. We take you anywhere you need to go!
We travel throughout Brisbane South, Logan and Redlands Cities, Gold Coast, Townsville, Charters Towers, Ingham, Cairns and surrounding areas.
It takes a special person to excel behind the wheel and our fabulous and friendly team will help you get to where you need to be with the peace of mind that comes from being transported by people who love what they do.
While highly competent and possessing clean driving records, our drivers are also accredited first-aiders and trained in assisting our clients and their varying degree of needs. They will assist you to the vehicle, take you to your appointment and, when your trip is complete, deliver you safely back home.
Whatever your reason for travel, if you have reached a point in your life where you need extra assistance getting out and about, why not catch a Community Flyer and leave the driving to us.
