Rhode Island Senior Rides

Transportation · Rhode Island · Free

Find Rhode Island senior transportation through the Eldercare Locator. A first stop for veterans, dialysis patients, and seniors with disabilities who qualify for paratransit. Most paratransit programs require an application, doctor's note, and a few weeks of advance scheduling for regular rides. Dialysis NEMT is one of the most-used Medicaid transportation benefits, with rides three times a week for years at a time. Open at no cost to Rhode Island seniors and the families supporting them.
