Bed-to-Bed Medical Transport
Seamless, Safe, and Compassionate Patient Transfers
What Is Bed-to-Bed Medical Transport?
It means exactly what it says: from the moment your loved one is collected from their bed in a hospital, care home, or private residence, to the moment they arrive in their new bed—whether in another hospital, care facility, or at home—they are under continuous care. SkyCare coordinates every element of the journey, including:
- Ground ambulance transfers at both ends
- Medical escort staff on all modes of transport
- All documentation and airline approvals
- Communication with hospitals, consulates, and insurers
The result is a complete, door-to-door service—without delays, gaps, or the need to manage multiple providers.
Why SkyCare?
SkyCare isn’t just a travel service—we’re a clinical provider with real medical governance. That means everything we do is backed by regulation, training, and experience. Here’s what sets us apart:
✔ Clinical Oversight from Day One: Our medical team reviews every patient’s condition before we book a single leg of the journey. From fit-to-fly assessments to medication management plans, we ensure it’s safe to proceed.
✔ Personal Coordination: You’ll be assigned a dedicated case manager from our repatriation team. They’ll act as your single point of contact and remain available 24/7 until the patient is safely handed over.
✔ Global Network, Local Focus: We operate internationally, with access to airlines, private air ambulances, and medical partners worldwide—while staying grounded in British clinical standards.
✔ CQC-Regulated Provider: Unlike brokers or agents, we’re fully CQC registered. This means our staff, systems, and care protocols meet the highest UK standards for medical transport.
How Does It Work?
We’ve designed our process to make life easier—not more complicated. Here’s how it works:
- Initial Contact: You tell us who, where, and when. We’ll guide you through what we need and give you immediate advice.
- Medical Review: Our clinicians assess the patient’s fitness to fly and determine the safest route.
- Planning the Journey: We book every detail—road ambulances, flights, medical escorts, airport handling, and all documentation.
- The Transfer: Our team accompanies the patient from bed to bed. You’ll receive updates at every stage.
- Handover and Follow-Up: Once the patient arrives, we hand over to the next care team—or help settle them back home. We remain available for post-journey support.
Is This Just for Emergency Cases?
No. In fact, most of our clients are planning their journeys days or weeks in advance. Repatriation after surgery, long-term illness abroad, or even simply wanting a loved one to be closer to home—these are the most common reasons people choose our Bed-to-Bed service.
You Focus on Your Loved One. We’ll Handle the Rest.
When it comes to medical repatriation, one mistake or missed form can cause dangerous delays. That’s why we take responsibility for everything—planning, clinical care, and transport. You’ll never have to speak to an airline, chase medical letters, or book your own ambulance. We do it all.
