Secure hospital Ambulance
A Vital Resource for the NHS in Mental Health and Patient Care
The safe and compassionate transportation of patients is a crucial component of the NHS. This is particularly important for individuals requiring specialised care and security, such as those facing mental health challenges or with complex medical needs. Our NHS Secure hospital ambulance service provides essential support to the healthcare sector, ensuring patients are transported safely and with dignity.
In this vital task, Secure24 is a reliable and steadfast partner to the NHS. Our comprehensive suite of services enhances patient care, streamlines operations, and alleviates the ever-growing demands on the resources of the NHS. We offer highly skilled patient-centred care, well-trained staff, specialised state-of-the-art vehicles, and unwavering commitment to the dignity and well-being of every patient.
By making use of our services, the NHS can improve patient outcomes, streamline operations and free up NHS staff to focus on delivering essential care within NHS facilities.

Mental Health Transport
Secure24’s Mental Health Transport service is a cornerstone of our comprehensive approach to patient care. We know that individuals with mental health conditions often require specialised care and attention during transport. Our experienced teams are therefore not only trained in safe transportation, but also in de-escalation techniques, crisis intervention and several other key services.
