Ambulance to Scotland or Cornwall? Long Distance Medical Transfers

When you or a loved one needs a medical transfer over a long distance, whether it’s from London to Scotland, Cornwall, or even beyond, choosing the right private ambulance service is essential. At Met Medical, we specialise in long-distance transfers, ensuring patients receive safe, comfortable, and professional care throughout their journey.

Are All Private Ambulance Services the Same?

No—private ambulance services vary significantly in terms of expertise, equipment, and staffing. Some providers operate with only basic first-aid-trained staff, which may not be sufficient for patients with complex medical needs. At Met Medical, we are led by experienced paramedics, nurses, and doctors. Our team ensures that every journey is staffed appropriately, whether the patient requires basic monitoring, complex medical care, or specialist interventions en route.

Can We Administer Medication During the Journey?

A common question we receive is whether we can administer medication during long-distance transfers. The answer depends on the level of medical support required. Our ambulances can be staffed with paramedics and nurses who are authorised to administer a wide range of medications. If a patient requires advanced interventions, we can also provide doctor-led transfers. Every journey is carefully planned to ensure the right clinical oversight is in place.

Extensive Experience in UK and European Transfers

Met Medical has vast experience in providing ambulance transfers across the UK and even into Europe. Whether you need transport from Cornwall to London, Scotland to the Midlands, or even a journey to France or Spain, we can accommodate your needs. Our vehicles are fully equipped to provide a safe and comfortable experience, with necessary medical equipment, oxygen support, and space for family members to accompany the patient where possible.
