  • Medic 1 were extremely professional and efficient during the build up to transporting my mother from a hospice in Stoke-on-Trent to a nursing home on Anglesey. They gave a very competitive quote but, more importantly, inspired confidence that they would provide a crew that knew what they were doing and would provide a caring service. …

I liaised with Steve who couldn’t be more helpful, and went above and beyond to make a difficult situation run as smooth as possible all the while Steve and the crew putting the patient needs above all els.

  • Excellent - Medic1 literally rescued me from Sheffield after I seriously injured my knee. NHS Ambulances were fully committed for several hours with life-threatening cases and I knew from past experience that the injury would need urgent surgery. From contacting Medic1 at just after 13:00 they were able to dispatch a crew, collect me from Sheffield at 18:00 and have me at a local hospital in N Wales before 23:00 where I received surgery the following morning at 0930. …

Not every journey is straightforward. A medical condition, disability, reduced mobility or additional support need can make travelling by car, taxi or conventional transport difficult, uncomfortable or unsuitable.

Medic 1 provides private ambulance, medical and supported transport across North Wales and throughout the UK. From accessible vehicles and wheelchair transport to fully equipped ambulances with clinical crews, every journey is planned around the individual and the support they need.

Whether you are coming home from hospital, travelling to an appointment, attending an important family occasion or making a long-distance journey, we can arrange the right vehicle, equipment and level of support.

Tell us about the journey. We’ll help with the rest.

The right support for the journey

There is no single type of patient transport that suits everybody. We assess each journey and match the vehicle, equipment and crew to the person travelling.

  1. 1

    Accessible & assisted

    An accessible vehicle with extra time and help from door to destination.

  2. 2

    Wheelchair

    Travel seated in your own manual or powered wheelchair, safely secured.

  3. 3

    Stretcher

    For people who can’t sit safely or comfortably for the journey.

  4. 4

    Clinical crew

    Ambulance with an Emergency Care Assistant, Technician or Paramedic where needed.

For families, this means you don’t need to understand ambulance terminology or decide which level of crew is required. For healthcare organisations, it means one provider for every level of patient need.

For individuals & families

Arrange transport for yourself or a loved one directly — no NHS referral needed. Tell us what the journey is for and we’ll plan the rest.

Hospital & appointment transport

For care homes & healthcare providers

Reliable access to seated, wheelchair, stretcher and clinically supported transport, with ongoing arrangements for regular journeys.
