Long Distance Ambulance

Patients that are not in immediate health danger often choose to go on long-distance medical trips for specialist care or procedures. Interestingly, this model is different from the conventional urgency that is characteristic of brick and mortar ambulance services.

The use of long-distance ambulance ensures that patients transport to a medical facility that is quite some distance away. Now, families can be at ease, knowing that their ill loved ones wouldn’t be in immediate danger throughout the trip.

What makes it Unique?

Just like every other ambulance service, it is faster and has relevant medical equipment to keep patients in good health pending their arrival to their destination. Besides, there is a provision of trained and experienced medical personnel aboard the ambulance. Their job is to offer medical help if the patient is in immediate health danger before they arrive at the designated medical facility. Medical equipment like motorized wheelchairs and oxygen are also available. They would come in handy in the event of an emergency.

Outside of medical aspects, there are other benefits for this kind of medical transport. The first point to note is the comfort of the transported individual. The vehicle comes equipped with state-of-the-art facilities to create optimum comfort. For instance, patients are sure of getting excellent treatment, including a tri belt safety system, full-size luxury coaches, and twin-sized beds. Also, the ambulance has enough room for a couple of family members to accompany the patient.

The Types of Medical Transport

It is important to note that this type of medical transportation is also called “Non-Emergency Medical Transport.” It is called this because the patients on board do not require any form of emergency medical treatment. The services come in two types, which are the Ground and Air Ambulance. The variation aims to enhance mode of operations in a manner that fit into the patients budget.

It all ultimately comes down to budget and preference when settling for either. The transportation types have distinct features that make them unique, and it is up to the patient to choose one over the other. For instance, the air ambulance is faster and facilitates the movement of patients in the shortest time possible. The cost tends to be higher than that of ground transport.

The land-based non-emergency medical transport is cost-effective and is feasible for patients that are older or not in immediate danger. Also, it includes entertainments of various kinds. Some include media players or cable television to make the long drive interesting.

Whether you choose air or land long distance medical transport, provided you can afford the cost of either, you would enjoy a high level of care both on-road or in the air.

Final Words

Patients on the move require optimum medical assistance. The use of ambulances facilitates that, and one that is equipped to cover many miles like the long-distance ambulance is always a good choice for intra-state travel. In addition to the team of experienced medical professionals that work together for you and the quality experience that comes with the ride, patients and their families can rest easy knowing that their loved ones are under the care of experienced medical professionals.
