On Regular Days
Bikur Cholim can provide rides for family members to and from the hospital. We also provide transportation for those in need of rehabilitation or other out-patient services. To arrange transportation, please call the transportation hotline at 732-672-9059.
Please note that Bikur Cholim can only transport people locally, and cannot transport anyone in a wheelchair or with oxygen unless they have an aid or someone else with them that will assist them 100%. We unfortunately cannot assist anyone that is unable to get in and out of the vehicle on their own.
On Shabbat or Yom Tov
Over any Shabbat or Yom Tov that a taxi is needed for travel to or from the local hospitals, we have arranged for the A-A Checker Cab Company to provide these rides. The cab company is familiar with the procedures for Shabbat and Chagim. Therefore, if you think that you may need this service, please call Bikur Cholim at 732-572-7181. Otherwise, on Shabbat or a Yom Tov, please call the A-A Checker Cab Company directly at 732-545-2300. If you are in the hospital, you should ask a nurse to call on your behalf.
Payment to cover the taxi ride can be made on the donation page or checks can be sent to:
Bikur Cholim of Raritan Valley
7 Marshall Drive
Edison, NJ 08817
