Deciding on a treatment plan with their cancer care team is one of the most important decisions patients have to make in their cancer journey. However, that decision is ultimately irrelevant if they are unable to make it to their treatments. 

Many of these patients are faced with transportation barriers in the form of a recommendation from their medical team to not drive, a lack of ownership of a vehicle, an inability to solicit a ride from a family member or friend, or tough side effects from their cancer or treatments that cause them to not feel well enough to get behind the wheel. That’s where Hope Cancer Resources steps in.

“Before I discovered Hope Cancer Resources, I was soliciting rides from friends who many times weren't available. I am so grateful to know I can depend on Hope Cancer Resources for transportation.  Thank you, thank you for providing this wonderful service.”  – Grateful Patient

Our Patient Transportation Program is a vital resource for patients who have no other means of transportation. Our professional drivers are able to transport patients to and from their cancer-related medical appointments. This service is provided at no cost, regardless of the length of time or frequency a patient requires our assistance.

If you are a patient facing a transportation barrier to access your cancer-related appointments, contact one of our social workers at 479-361-5847.
