Hi everyone,

Can someone tell me if it is at all possible to rent an ambulance to transport a patient from a hospital in Al Ain to a house in Dubai? The patient is being discharged from hospital but is unable to sit due to spinal surgery. It is a long drive from Al Ain to Dubai so an ambulance with the right kind of bed or stretcher is the only and ideal option. We need this probably for tomorrow or Tuesday.

Thanks in advance

I'd check with insurance first they may suggest who you are to use, then who is the follow up doctor/hospiatl you will use here in Dubai? I would call a few of the hospitals and ask directly if they have a private ambulance service.

Thanks DGiT, We prefer getting the service from one of the Dubai hospitals but where do we start? government or private? Thanks for the tip on insurance.

You should be able to arrange this with the hospital in AL Ain or one of the Dubai hospitals, also check with insurance cover to see if they can help.
