Aeromedics staff have experience in national and international patient retrieval.  Not only are they able to care for a patient during transfer, they have experience in the complex logistics involved in transferring a patient from hospital via ambulance, through the airport on to the aircraft and the reverse the other end.

Our ethos is to provide high quality safe medical care to our patients whilst they are being transported. We also provide a caring approach; we understand that transfer is a stressful time for patient and relatives, and provide regular communication, keeping you informed every step of the way.

The service we offer depend on the needs of the customer.  We are able to assess the patient abroad, make recommendations regarding transport and organise a retrieval from start to finish. 

For companies able to conduct their own medical assessments and decision making, we are at your service to help in whatever way you wish.
