Well supported

Was supported by the HATS team in their Chelsea and Westminster hospital. Their team lead Hina was really good in keeping tabs regarding updates. As we were supported with the SGH team but the ETA was later in the day. The team immediately supported us with a transport and was able to arrive back to the hospital in time for medication rounds.

Amazing team. Really very grateful for the compassion and respect shown to my elderly mum. Wasn't easy getting mum up and very narrow staircase but they worked together to do so gently. Couldn't be more grateful for these lovely people.

Absolutely outstanding service by Neil Campbell who escorted me from home to the Queen Mary’s Hospital. He called me prior to pick up to let me know he was 5 mins away. He was charming, polite and extremely professional. He also possesses great driving skills. We picked up two other patients on route. We all enjoyed warm conversations and everyone was extremely happy including me. Neil is an asset to the team and should be recognised for his service.

Today I had transport to take me to great Ormand Street Hospital for an appointment. The person taking me today, his name is William Abbey. Apologies if surname spelt incorrectly. His is an amazing person, really thinks out of the box and goes all way out to make your feel comfortable and safe. Checked on us from the beginning of the journey to end making sure we were OK. Escorted me and daughter to even crossed the road with us making sure we are safe. So far I have not had that kind of service before.

Safe and pleasant transfer

Drivers Patrick and Limbo helped us with the transfer of our newborn baby from Lewisham Hospital to Croydon Hospital. They were patient, kind and helpful. Took every care to secure her in the ambulance and were friendly while we chatted on the way. Patrick drove carefully and we had a pleasant and safe transfer. Thank you!
