Reliable and Compassionate Patient Transport Service
Whether it’s getting to a routine medical appointment or visiting family, transportation can be a
significant barrier for individuals with limited mobility, chronic conditions, or age-related
challenges. At Kate Dawson Private Care, we offer a professional, comfortable, and reliable
patient transport service designed to meet the needs of those who require support getting
from A to B.
Our team of fully trained carers and drivers ensures every journey is safe, punctual, and
respectful. With our private patient transport, you or your loved one can attend appointments,
social visits, or errands with complete peace of mind.
What Is Non-Emergency Patient Transport?
Non-emergency patient transport refers to planned, safe travel for individuals who are medically stable but need assistance reaching appointments, clinics, or other essential destinations. Unlike ambulance services, our transport is designed for everyday needs—offering
more flexibility and a higher standard of comfort.
Our service is perfect for:
- GP and hospital appointments
- Physiotherapy or specialist clinics
- Post-surgical follow-ups
- Visiting friends and family
- Community events or religious gatherings
With our support, missing appointments or relying on public transport becomes a thing of the past.
Why Choose Our Private Patient Transport?
At Kate Dawson Private Care, we know that dignity and independence matter—especially when mobility becomes a challenge. Our private patient transport service is tailored to each client’s physical and emotional needs.
Here’s what makes us different:
- Friendly, DBS-checked drivers trained in patient handling
- Door-to-door support, including assistance in and out of the vehicle
- Climate-controlled, accessible vehicles for comfort
- Flexible scheduling for one-off or regular journeys
- Companionship and reassurance during your trip
This service pairs seamlessly with our other offerings like Comfort Care or Friendly Visits to create a fully supportive care experience.
Who Is Patient Transport Service Suitable For?
You or a loved one may benefit from non-emergency patient transport if:
- You have mobility issues that make using public transport difficult
- You require physical support during entry or exit from a vehicle
- You feel anxious or unsafe travelling alone
- You live in a rural area with limited public transit options
- You need a trusted companion during medical or social appointments
We work with older adults, individuals with disabilities, those recovering from surgery, and people with cognitive impairments such as dementia.

How Our Patient Transport Works
Our process is designed to be simple, secure, and stress-free.
1. Initial Consultation: We begin with a friendly conversation to understand your transport needs and health concerns.
2. Travel Plan: We develop a flexible transport plan tailored to your schedule—whether it’s a regular hospital visit or a special event.
3. Safe Travel: On the day, our carer-driver will arrive promptly, assist you door-to-door, and stay with you if needed throughout the appointment.
4. Return Trip & Support: Once your visit is complete, we’ll bring you home safely and ensure you’re settled.
We can also integrate our patient transport service into a wider care plan, alongside Medication Support or Home Checks, providing complete continuity of care.
Trained, Compassionate Professionals You Can Trust
All of our transport care team members are:
- Fully trained in safe handling and first aid
- Experienced in working with vulnerable adults
- Background-checked, insured, and supervised
- Respectful of privacy, comfort, and communication needs
Our goal is to make every journey not only safe—but also pleasant and reassuring.
Whether it’s a short ride to the GP or a longer trip to hospital, you’ll be in trusted hands from start to finish.
