Patient transport services

St John Ambulance has been meeting the nation’s first aid needs for over 100 years, caring for patients and transporting them to hospital.

Nationally, we have one of the largest ambulance fleets, and we are the major component of the ambulance reserve - supporting the statutory services in times of crisis and peak demand.

In Hampshire, as a commercial patient transport provider we have key contracts with the NHS; we also provide patient transport for many other organisations, as well as private individuals.

We are registered with the Care Quality Commission as an ambulance service and strive to exceed the minimum requirements expected of us at all times.

We can provide transport to and from hospitals, clinics and care homes, including outpatient appointments.  We provide ambulance transport to meet a variety of patient requirements.  We can tailor our resources to meet social care and low dependency needs, as well as specialist clinical transport for high dependency needs. 

Our ambulances are fully equipped to transfer seated patients, wheelchair dependent patients and also those who have stretcher requirements.  All vehicles have automated external defibrillators, medical gases and are compliant with current protocols and CEN European Standards.

A bariatric service is also available with the ability to transport patients who have differing needs utilising specialist equipment.

St John Ambulance staff are trained and continually assessed to national standards.  Our experienced staff will act with professionalism and sensitivity at all times. 

The Patient Transport Service office operates office hours Monday to Friday for all enquiries.  Local and long distance journeys are catered for.  Requests for evening and weekend journeys can often be taken, subject to availability and advanced notice.
