Fraser Health is working with Translink, BC Transit and handyDART to help ensure vulnerable citizens in our region can access COVID-19 immunizations by providing transportation to those in need.
Eligibility
The program is currently for seniors, vulnerable groups or other individuals who live in the Fraser Health region* and are facing barriers around transportation, such as limited options or affordability, or for those who need assistance in getting to and from their vaccination appointment due to a mobility, visual, or cognitive impairment.
*Find out which health authority you live in.
*Confirm your vaccine eligibility, or find out if you live in a high-transmission neighbourhood.
How to request a ride
First, you will need to register for your vaccine on the provincial Get Vaccinated system. You will need your registration confirmation number to complete the request form. Once you have registered, you can complete the transportation request form below.
Second: Let us book your appointment for you. We will book your appointment for you when we make your transportation arrangements. This helps ensure we can coordinate your transportation with your appointment time.
