Find out more about transport support
Should you require transport to get you to hospital, you should contact your GP to ask if he/she can arrange for an ambulance or hospital car to transport you. (Unless you have been told otherwise by hospital medical staff).
Please do not bring anyone with you in the ambulance unless this has been agreed in advance.
Unfortunately, we are unable to give exact timings of when ambulances will arrive.
In some cases, a hospital car can be provided by the ambulance service if you are unable to make your way to hospital or you have no-one to bring you and you require assistance
