Rescue One Reviews 3

I would certainly not recommend using this company. First and foremost they were one and three-quarter hours late in arriving, they then took an hour and a half to move the patient from the bed onto their stretcher and admitted that they had the wrong kind of stretcher. This caused a lot of distress to the patient. Upon speaking to management who reviewed the case, so to speak, it was decided that the crew had performed the operation adequately. The two who did come to the house were very pleasant but seemed extremely inexperienced and following the transfer approached me and said that if I wish to make a formal complaint, they could fully understand why. Upon speaking to management, I was informed that they had done the job absolutely fine and the fact that they had taken the length of time that they did was totally acceptable.

After being let down by the NHS, our family contacted Rescue One Medical, and we honestly cannot thank them enough. They responded the very same day and took complete care of us during what was an incredibly stressful time.

The team were kind, professional, and reassuring throughout, and they safely transported our family member from hospital to a specialist rehabilitation centre with absolute care and compassion. Everything was handled smoothly, and nothing felt rushed or overlooked.

The service was fantastic and genuinely made a very difficult situation so much better. We are extremely grateful to Rescue One Medical and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone in need of urgent, reliable medical transport.

Unfortunately my experience with Rescue one (Stoke-On-Trent, ST6 5HL) was very poor.
We paid for pickup annd return of a patient, we gave all the information requested during the call.
When the team arrived they took the patients blood pressure and decided it was too low to transfer the patient, they called the paramedics and then left.
When the paramedics arrived they were astonished that the team had refused to transfer the patient as the blood pressure was OK.
When I called I was told they didn't have all the info they needed from me, and had sent the wrong team. I was very confused by this, as I had answered all the questions they had for me
They appear to be very inexperienced with patient transfer, and obviously didn't know how to handle this situation.
I would strongly advise avoiding this company for patient transfer, your loved one deserves a better standard of care than this company can provide.
