What Is a Medical Escort?
A medical escort is a trained healthcare professional – such as a paramedic, nurse, or doctor – who accompanies a patient during travel to provide continuous medical care and reassurance. This service is ideal for individuals who are medically stable but not fit to travel unaccompanied.
