Safe and Sound Youth Transportation, Inc. has a very “structured and deliberate process” to “ensure the smoothest and safest transition.” It requires full parental/guardian cooperation and a short application of the necessary medical history, medication regime, and recent at-risk behaviors. The agents “strive for the shortest routes,” unless the safety of the child is jeopardized by long airport layovers. To minimize some of the risks in traveling, they are “not only fully licensed and insured, but are also covered by AAA roadside insurance.” Prior to leaving for a trip, the staff will perform a pre-trip inspection checklist on any vehicle they use.
Transport agents stay in communication with the parent or guardian, by cell phone, and call at frequent intervals, which can be decided on prior to the transport. They encourage a meeting with parents/guardians in person to finalize arrangements on the eve of the transport.
