No one should go to a medical appointment alone.
It all started with my father, in Cameroon, who needs help every day.
The need is real here too. After sedation, hospitals ask that an adult take the patient home, even by taxi. Without that adult, a colonoscopy or day surgery can be cancelled.
The companion picks the person up, stays with them while they wait and brings them home. For a medical appointment, the trip home after a procedure or an everyday outing. The price is known upfront.
In Canada, among people aged 85 and older living at home, 42% live alone.
I created Odhor so every family can count on a trusted person, booked ahead, at a price known upfront.
