Power of Ability Night at Dunkin’ Park continues to be one of the most meaningful traditions at The Rideshare Company. Each year, this special evening brings adults with disabilities, families, and direct support professionals together for a Hartford Yard Goats game filled with connection, excitement, and unforgettable moments.
As an assisted living leader, you are balancing resident care, staff support, regulatory requirements, and financial responsibility every day. Transportation often sits in the background until something goes wrong, such as a missed medical appointment, a vehicle breakdown, or rising insurance and maintenance costs.
Today’s vehicles come packed with advanced technology designed to make driving safer, more efficient, and more comfortable. Among these features, Fuel Econ Mode (often labeled as Eco Mode) is one of the most used and commonly misunderstood. While it can help conserve fuel, it is not meant for every driving situation. In fact, using Fuel Econ Mode at the wrong time can reduce performance or even compromise safety.
Whether you are driving for work, commuting daily, or managing fleet vehicles, understanding when to use Fuel Econ Mode and when not to can make a meaningful difference in fuel efficiency, vehicle performance, and safety on the road.
As we step into December, we’re reflecting with gratitude on the impact we made together last month. At The Rideshare Company, our commitment to supporting the community goes beyond transportation. It is about connection, compassion, and showing up where help is needed most.
For many organizations, transportation is essential, yet managing it can feel overwhelming. From purchasing and maintaining vehicles to ensuring accessibility, safety, and compliance, the costs and logistics can quickly become barriers.
