For continuity of care, it is vital that our medical team starts and finishes the entire journey with your patient. Therefore, our plane operators team arrives at your patient's bedside at the start of the transfer. At the start, we are able to assess the patient before she ever leaves her bed. We also comfort her so that she is less anxious about the trip. At the end of the trip, we also travel with her by ground transportation to her bedside. At this time, we discuss the trip process with the receiving nurse so that she is aware of any issues the patient may have. In this way, your patient is assured the utmost in care.

As you know, my sister had called a few other similar ambulances, but none of the other people offered her the options or level of comfort that sounded to me was standard practice with your concern. And none could have been as kind, patient, and seemingly interested as you were or as forgiving with my endless calls and questions. In the end, it was your willingness to share in this whole experience in every way that had won me over ... and even at that, you succeeded in surpassing my expectation.
