Services

Easy Does It Emergency Services Program is a Non-Profit, 501 (c) 3, tax-exempt organization that provides non-medical emergency assistance and other essential supports to seniors and people with severe physical disabilities in and around Berkeley, CA.

In-Home Care

Emergency Attendant Care

Serving Berkeley Residents

Our emergency attendants are on standby to step in to assist Berkeley residents with severe physical disabilities who have an unforeseen crisis or disruption in their regular in-home care support system. Our experienced and qualified staff provide assistance with urgent activities of daily living when no other caregiver is available.

Independent Living Resources

Serving Berkeley Residents

Our Independent Living Resource Coordinator assists Berkeley Residents with severe physical disabilities to find and maintain quality in-home care workers, build skills, and rely on Easy Does It emergency services as little as possible. We provide referrals to community services and maintain a list of disability-related resources.

Wheelchair & Assistive Device Repair

Emergency Equipment Repair

Serving Berkeley Residents

Our repair technicians are qualified to diagnose and resolve various issues with wheelchairs, scooters, and a wide range of assistive devices. We use donated parts to keep the service affordable and have a limited supply of wheelchairs and other devices to loan while equipment is being repaired. 

Accessible Transportation

Routine Transportation

Serving Berkeley Residents

Berkeley residents who qualify for Wheelchair-van Program Vouchers through the City of Berkeley Rides for Seniors and the Disabled (BRSD) can take advantage of this service for non-emergency transit needs. Users can get rides to medical appointments, stores, or other destinations in and around Berkeley.

Rescue Rides

Serving Berkeley Residents

Our drivers respond to urgent unplanned transportation needs. We will get you home when a ride falls through or your wheelchair battery runs out of power. If you need to get to a last-minute medical appointment or to the store to pick up medication, Easy Does It is available when no other transportation is available.
