VEHICLES, EQUIPMENT & JOURNEY PLANNING

Our specialist patient transport fleet

Vehicles and equipment are selected after the passenger, access and journey requirements are reviewed.

Specially adapted for planned adult transport

Medicar operates suitably adapted vehicles and specialist transport equipment for the journeys it accepts.

A vehicle photograph cannot confirm whether a particular passenger or access route is suitable. The assessment considers the equipment's working limits, the vehicle, staffing, transfer method and the complete route.

Where assessed as appropriate, specialist equipment may support stretcher transport and a change of configuration for difficult access while the passenger remains supported.

What selection is based on

  • Passenger position and transfer needs
  • Access at collection and destination
  • Journey time and comfort
  • Equipment working limits
  • Crew and escort requirements
REAL MEDICAR VEHICLE PHOTOGRAPHY

Built around practical patient transport

Vehicle availability and specification can change. Images show an actual Medicar vehicle; they do not guarantee a specific vehicle for a booking.

Stretcher and conversion equipment

Equipment is selected for the passenger and route. A stretcher-to-chair configuration may help with certain narrow or awkward access arrangements, but only when suitable for the passenger and within the equipment's limits.

Bariatric and capacity enquiries

Medicar does not rely on one blanket website weight figure. Accurate weight, dimensions, access, equipment, vehicle and staffing must be considered together.

Comfort and dignity

Planning includes positioning, communication, journey duration, reasonable belongings and the handover at the destination. Tell us about preferences or needs that may affect comfort before travel.
