In West Sussex, the newly established IPRS Medical Transport Services (MTS) has commenced operations, with plans for expansion in the upcoming year. Offering a diverse range of specialised ambulance transport services throughout the United Kingdom and to and from Europe, they aim to cater to the unique transport requirements of patients.
IPRS MTS operates under the umbrella of IPRS Group, an independent organisation that provides clinical products and services to both the public and private sectors. Driven by a commitment to clinical excellence, compliance, and delivering exceptional patient experiences, IPRS MTS has developed four distinctive medical transportation services. They collaborate directly with NHS trusts, commissioning bodies, private ambulance services, and the general public to meet the diverse transport needs of patients.
Their comprehensive services encompass high-dependency transfers from intensive care units, secure transport services for individuals with mental health conditions, bariatric transfers for patients in need of medical support during transportation, and non-emergency repatriation services to and from Europe.
Expressing his enthusiasm, Phil Bayliss, the Director of IPRS MTS, states, “I am thrilled to announce the launch of IPRS MTS. We are excited to bring our services to the market and firmly believe that we offer a truly unique proposition. Our alignment with the Greener NHS initiative, along with our embracement of technology and unwavering clinical focus, sets us apart. Being part of IPRS MTS is an exhilarating experience, and I eagerly anticipate the growth of our organisation in the months and years ahead.”
Ensuring the provision of the highest standard of medical care is the top priority for IPRS MTS. Each member of their paramedic team is registered with the Health Practice Associates Council, the regulatory body for pre-hospital clinicians in the UK. Additionally, they undergo rigorous training to guarantee that patients receive optimal care and compassion throughout the transportation process.
At the core of IPRS MTS’s operations lies technology and innovation. To facilitate safe and comfortable service, their fleet of ambulances is equipped with state-of-the-art medical equipment utilised by their paramedics to deliver exceptional clinical care. For the secure transportation of individuals with mental health conditions, specially designed vehicles incorporating Home Office Category B cells and seating arrangements conducive to assessments and conversations during the journey are employed. Their services undergo meticulous auditing to ensure high patient satisfaction and maintain stringent quality standards.
Despite having recently launched earlier this month, IPRS MTS is already focused on growth, with plans to introduce new services and expand their coverage across the country and into Europe. They are actively recruiting for various positions within the United Kingdom.
Martyn Jackson, CEO of the IPRS Group, expresses, “At the IPRS Group, we continuously explore avenues to expand upon our existing skill set. Our expertise in repatriation positions us favorably to extend our capabilities through the establishment of IPRS MTS. We have already assembled a team with extensive experience in this domain, and I am tremendously excited about the development of this organisation.”
