Secure Patient Transfers Nationwide & Europe

Secure Transfers Within The UK & Europe

A patient-focused approach with experience of secure patient transfers within the UK and Europe

Working in support of NHS Trust’s, ICB’s and Private Hospitals, Amvale Medical Transport Ltd is committed to understanding the patient needs and delivering high-value support and care to patients with a wide range of psychiatric illnesses and learning disabilities.

We provide secure transportation across the UK and abroad for patients and people, supporting Mental Health Trust’s as and when requested. As an example, we have assisted with patients from Scotland, London and Truro, as well as having returned patients to France, Croatia and Prague, under all Sections, Court Orders, Bariatric and Mental Health Capacity Act, including Informal Patients.

We also provide secure transport services for Public Sector prisons in England and Wales managed by Her Majesty’s Prison Service (HMPS), which is part of the Her Majesty’s Prison and Probation Service, for people requiring secure transport for medical reasons.

Motivated Team

Our services address the specific needs of a safe and secure transport service, which supports our clients’ needs and the care pathways of their patients.

We look to support you in your service improvements and in constantly developing our understanding of the patients’ needs.

Our services include secure patient transport for all levels of sectioned or non-sectioned patients.

We're Here For You

We offer journeys to and from secure and non-secure locations, NHS or private hospitals, courts, police stations, places of residence or community locations and places of safety; we are here to support you.

Our staff are trained and qualified to RESPECT level, as approved through NAViGO Health and the BILD Code of Practice through our RESPECT trained instructors.

Our staff focus on a person-centred approach, they are trained to support and not control patients, thus developing a positive relationship to improve the quality of life for all patients and staff.

Safe Restraint

We focus on an individual-centred approach with a priority on de-escalation and calming techniques.

We believe in the minimum restrictive procedures possible while ensuring the patient, members of the public and property are all kept safe and unharmed.

Our restraints are made from a tough cloth that provides a softer more humane alternative to other intrusive methods of control and restraint. This allows patients to be safely transported and to prevent those who may attempt self-harm.

All staff are trained in the safer handling use of soft cuff restraint systems as part of our in depth training program.

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

The safe transfer of all our patients is our top priority, including in times of special clinical need such as Coronavirus and other pandemics.

You can be assured with Amvale that all staff are equipped and trained in full PPE specific to their role and operate to full robust policies and procedures, including in relation to COVID-19 and the Coronavirus.

Amvale also employs the use of their own sanitiser unit that applies a powerful disinfectant throughout potentially contaminated areas in aerosol form, sanitising the air and all exposed surfaces, including floors, ceilings, carpets, corners and crevices. The particles are so small that they can pass into HEPA filters of air-conditioning units.

There are no risks to people, surfaces or electronic equipment, and upon completion of the process, there are no wet patches or traces of residue.
