Appointments and admissions
Hospital journeys are timed against an appointment, not a rough arrival window, and hospital car parks are frequently full at peak clinic hours. We plan the pick-up so you reach the correct entrance with time to find the department.
Each hospital page names the entrance our drivers use, which matters on large sites where outpatient, maternity and day-surgery entrances can be several minutes' walk apart.
Discharges and open return times
Discharge times move. Rather than booking a fixed return that may be hours out, tell us it is a discharge and we hold the journey loosely: you call when the ward releases you and the driver comes in.
For day procedures where you cannot drive afterwards, the same arrangement covers the trip home with a driver who can assist to the door.
Accessibility and assistance
Tell us about mobility needs when booking: step height, folding wheelchair or walking frame stowage, whether a passenger needs help from the door to the car, and whether a companion is travelling.
We match a vehicle with a suitable step and boot, and brief the driver so the assistance is arranged rather than improvised at the kerb.
Long-distance and specialist referrals
Specialist treatment often means travelling well outside your own health board or trust area, sometimes repeatedly over a course of treatment.
These runs are quoted as long-distance private journeys, and repeat courses can be arranged on one reference so you are not rebooking from scratch each week.
