I have a working Ridership App called "Dialy Ride"

Please take a look at my work and provide me an honest feedback. This app if for people needs to be driven to the dialysis center for little or no money. It was the app that I had talked about on the forum some weeks ago. I would appreciate any feedback that you have after browsing it over. Thank you all so very much!

your app look really good. I know that I don’t drive so app like your would help right now I’m just doing training then I will be doing dialysis at home. But when I did research to see if the dialysis center would pick me up like they do on some people I was told that Medicare would not pay for it because I was mobile if I was in a wheelchair they would . . I have rides to take me to training but if your app is finish or when you have it finish I would be glad to pass it on to my dialysis center if this app work in any state .

You're doing a lovely thing by designing this app and bringing patients and drivers together. I drove my hubby to his dialysis sessions and then he did that himself. I often wondered, if neither of us could do that, what we would do in an emergency situation. I see this as taking care of that issue with drivers who had a special interest in kidney disease. Thank you!

I was also thinking of patients from. Under developed countries. Most of them cannot take the public transportation because there are a lot of risks. But the level of volunteering is very low, so drivers will need to get paid somehow. I'm thinking of donation. Thank you for your input.

Yes, that would be good - an app that could be used worldwide. I sense you'll probably "roll it out" in other countries and make it available in the US later on - because lawsuits are common there. If you do make it available in the US, I would add a disclaimer that drivers have not had background checks (unless you want to do that) and that riders assume all risk...something along those lines. Otherwise, I'm not sure to the extent you would be held responsible. You would probably do well to chat with a lawyer. This is simply a suggestion. Hope you do well with the app!

Looked up that site, and unfortunately it is based in Atlanta - probably only for locals. Perhaps other regions have a service like this as well.

Not what you're looking for?
