Medical Escorts and VIP Medics
Medical escorts are experienced healthcare professionals—such as nurses, doctors, or paramedics—who accompany patients during travel to provide expert medical care, monitoring, and support. They are ideal for individuals who need assistance but don’t require the full resources of an air ambulance. In addition to managing medications, monitoring vital signs, and responding to medical needs, medical escorts also help ensure a smooth transition to and from the airport, assisting with check-in, baggage, and coordination with the airport’s special assistance team. Acting as a blend of personal medic and personal assistant, they provide both clinical expertise and practical support, making international travel safer, smoother, and less stressful for patients and their families.
