Medical Transport Officer careers

A Medical Transport Officer transfers non-emergency patients to and from healthcare facilities. You might work for a hospital, ambulance service, or private provider. Medical Transport Officers ensure patients are safely moved between locations, assisting with mobility, providing basic care, and monitoring their condition during transit.

You’ll operate a purpose-built vehicle and follow strict safety procedures. Medical Transport Officers play a vital role in supporting the healthcare system. You’ll need to be calm under pressure, physically capable, and have excellent communication skills. You’ll work closely with patients, families, and medical staff to ensure each journey is safe, timely, and comfortable for those in your care.
