- Visits to family or friends or recreational outings
- Transportation costs associated with routine visits to primary health clinics, physician/optometrists/audiology/dentist/denturist/or other practitioner clinics, or any transportation where the resident is capable of traveling using a wheelchair van, taxi, or private automobile.
