GoGo is a service for older adults that offers transportation, meal delivery, prescription delivery, and grocery delivery. Screened & monitored services from Uber, DoorDash, Instacart and more, with or without a smartphone, 24/7. If on demand transportation or grocery/food delivery is needed but the barrier is the technology just use GoGo Grandparent to help! Get started at their website.

‍

Why we know this works

It's important to have access to transportation even if one is not capable of driving.

This service is available in all 50 states and Canada and leverages the power of ride share and delivery services that require use of a smartphone and adds a human who will connect the app service and the older adult.

That way someone who is not a smart phone user can just place a phone call, talk to a person and get transportation set up as well as have their ride be monitored for their safety.

It can also keep family members or care partners in the loop by text message if desired with the family plan.
