Island Health provides funding to eight contracted transportation providers, creating a transportation network supporting people in many rural and remote regions. These contractors provide door-to-door, non-emergency, patient transportation services, primarily facilitating trips to and from Island Health appointments, facilities, or locations. This includes transportation to appointments in a doctor’s office. The program Rural Remote is available for smaller communities.
Wheelchair users must provide three days notice to arrange for the accessible vans and trips can be booked via email.
