This Happened With A Lyft Ride-Buyer Beware!
Thursday Feb 17, 2022
Thursday Feb 17, 2022
The morning of Gracie's recent surgery in Denver, I called a Lyft ride (like I've done for years!). We'd had a lot of snow and ice, and I opened the door to the car - only to have part of the trim that was frozen to the car come off. I picked it up and put it in the car- and then he took me to the hospital where Gracie was already being prepped for surgery.
Later that afternoon, I got a message on my phone about that incident. I couldn't believe what Lyft did - and I'm just posting this as a "Buyer Beware" message.

Tele-medicine. Virtual monitoring. Emergency Contacts. Engagement. Safety.
Caregivers need these boxes checked, and Gracie and I use a system doing all that and more! Imagine a parent at the end of her rope while caring for a special needs child getting a daily phone call from a caring person breaking through the isolation to check on that stressed mom. What kind of difference would that make?
It's all just one click away for you as a caregiver.
