Rides – Medical Equipment Loans

Mission

KeoweeCares for You is a volunteer-operated, nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization with the mission to help Keowee Key residents remain in their own homes as they cope with short term or chronic disabilities. These no charge services include rides for errands and appointments, a medical equipment loan closet, personal emergency information cards, and links to major area health system websites.

Need-A-Ride

KeoweeCares for You manages a volunteer-based, personal transportation system called Need-A-Ride to serve Keowee Key residents who are unable to drive with access to shops, medical appointments, and other activities.

Medical Loan Closet

KeoweeCares for You maintains a Medical Loan Closet that offers common medical equipment and aids such as crutches, rollators, wheelchairs and bath assists at no cost to residents. Delivery and return of the items are part of the service.

Medical Providers

KeoweeCares for You provides a list of the Medical Provider Systems in the upstate area with links to their web sites. Each site provides useful information such as phone numbers, treatment specialties, doctors and facility locations.

File of Life

KeoweeCares for You disseminates the File of Life card sets and urges residents to post them on their refrigerator doors and keep their data current to promote a faster and more efficient response to medical emergencies. All new Keowee Key residents receive the card sets and current residents may request them at the KKPOA office.
