Door-to-Door Support
We offer a full door-to-door service, assisting patients from their home or care setting into the vehicle and ensuring they are safely handed over at their destination. Where needed, we can remain on site and return patients home after their appointment.
This level of support is especially valuable for elderly patients, those recovering from illness, or anyone who may feel anxious travelling alone.
Punctuality and reliability are essential when attending medical appointments. Our team plans each journey carefully to ensure timely arrivals and smooth, stress-free transport. We understand that every patient has different requirements, so we take the time to provide a personalised approach for each booking and can track all vehicles live in real time to monitor journey progress.

What clients say
I apologise I don't have the names of the paramedics who facilitated the transfer, but they were outstanding in their professionalism, compassion and good humour.
He was so well looked after throughout the journey, and even enjoyed a sleep on the chair that folds down to a substantial bed in the back of the ambulance.
Having considered alternatives (plane, train, private vehicle) for this 500 mile journey, this was definitely the best choice, and I am very grateful to the team and the company for getting my father to me in a timely manner and in good form. Thankyou.
Amvale Glasgow
Excellent 5 day course from start to finish. It was at times overwhelming with the amount of information the course contained but it was very well run and structured. We had the best trainer (Stevie McKenzie ) who broke it down and made it easier to process and digest. His very realistic approach when it came to the practical training was vital for me as it showed me the fast pace I’d be expected to work at as a first responder.
By the end of the course I had gained the knowledge and practice I needed to have the confidence in my abilities. I got on really well with fellow students on the course. We bonded instantly and worked well together as a team.
I would highly recommend this 5 day course regardless of experience or knowledge.
All the staff at the Amvale Glasgow training centre are so welcoming, friendly, approachable and supportive.
Big thanks to Andrew Short and Melissa who are lovely, friendly and happy to answer any queries relating to the course.

We used Amvale for private ambulance transport for my elderly mother from Scotland to England, Borders General Hospital to Solihull care home.
My mum felt safe on what was a very long journey well cared for by trained professional staff. So glad we used Amvale in transporting such a precious cargo.
