Transportation for Bariatric Patients
ACC Medlink is the leader in long-distance bariatric transportation. We provide excellent patient care and we go the extra mile to ensure that our bariatric patients are comfortable and safe. Our luxury medical transport vehicles are large enough to stand inside of them. Also, there is plenty of room for multiple people to sit comfortably. Family and loved ones are more than welcome to accompany the patient to their new location.
Treated With Dignity
Obesity is a disease that affects more than one-third of the adult American population, and presents a variety of medical challenges for those affected. ACC Medlink's transportation service allows bariatric patients to travel safely. Unique features on our Mercedes Sprinter vans make them the superior choice for medical bariatric transportation.
The rear cargo doors on the van open 270 degrees, which makes boarding less stressful for the patient. Interior beds can be pushed together, creating a double-wide mattress to accommodate the patient comfortably. Our self-lifting Power Load Stretcher safely raises and lowers patients up to 700lbs with the touch of a button.
