-AlidaLee Gingerich RN, BSN
"I am an RN and was thinking I could be a travel companion but I had no idea how to start. Certified Senior TravALZ Companions was essential in validating my idea that this is a needed service. They provided experience and knowledge on the how-to and provided a very structured and professional class. They are a phone call away for any questions. I now have my website up, performed my first trip, and have obtained my certification from them! I am excited about what is next!"
-AlidaLee Gingerich RN, BSN
“Jan and Carol were a great balance of hands-on travel, medical/caregiving, and dementia experience. I have joined a monthly zoom call where I can continue to learn and collaborate. It is somewhat intimidating to start something new - but knowing that I have someone to call if I need guidance is invaluable.”
-Andrea Klingman, 2023
"The information I received in the program along with support from my classmates has proven invaluable to me both personally and professionally. I recently traveled internationally with a client who has physical disabilities. Because of the training I received through CTSC, I was able to confidently navigate the logistics for the client and the trip. As a result, the client experienced a successful trip. Thank you for helping to make that trip a success and for helping to turn my dream of becoming a [full time] care and travel companion a reality!"
