gentle SUPPORT YOU CAN COUNT ON
From gastric sleeve to bypass, weight-loss surgery deserves transport that's properly equipped, gentle on a healing abdomen, and always respectful.
Stryker Power-LOAD gurneys
Bariatric-rated gurneys to 500 lbs, hydraulically lifted and locked into the vehicle by a Stryker Power-LOAD system so every transfer is steady, secure and effortless.
Dignity in every detail
A warm, judgment-free crew trained in sensitivity and privacy. You'll be treated with the same respect we'd want for our own family.
Specialized lift teams
Higher-weight transfers are staffed with extra trained EMTs - a coordinated lift crew, never a single attendant improvising alone.
Bariatric-rated to 500 lbs
Extra-wide, weight-tested gurneys and fasteners - properly sized equipment, never a standard cot pushed past its limits.
Every follow-up covered
Recurring rides to nutrition visits, lab work, support groups and post-op checks - the long bariatric journey, handled.
Bed-to-gurney-to-bed care
Gentle lateral transfers move you safely between beds with no standing or bending - protecting a tender, healing abdomen at every step.
Built to carry you safely & comfortably
Standard medical vans aren't sized for bariatric care. Ours are - with rated equipment, wider access and trained crews on every ride.

Bed to gurney to bed — without ever standing
For many bariatric patients, the hardest part of any trip is the transfer itself. Our lift teams handle all of it, so you move safely between beds without standing, bending or straining a healing abdomen.
STEP 1
At your bedside
The lift team comes to your bed at home, the hospital or the facility - no walking to the curb.
STEP 2
Onto the gurney
A gentle lateral transfer slides you onto a bariatric-rated gurney — secured and Power-LOADed into the vehicle.
STEP 3
Into the receiving bed
At your destination we reverse the process, settling you comfortably into the next bed — start to finish, handled.
No standing transfers. No improvising. Just one smooth, supported move between beds.
Schedule your journey
Comfort and dignity standard
The bariatric journey is personal. Our crews are trained not just in safe handling, but in the quiet things that matter - privacy, patience, and a complete absence of judgment, every single ride.
Planned every step
A steady arm and proper technique on every step, curb and transfer.
Private & discreet
We move at your loved one's pace, never rushing a single moment.
Never rushed
Clear, kind and reassuring -
including with memory-care needs.
Genuinely caring
The warmth and encouragement you'd want for your own family.

Stryker Power-LOAD & specialized lift teams
The riskiest moment in any bariatric transport is lifting the loaded gurney into the vehicle. We remove that risk entirely with hospital-grade equipment and crews trained specifically for higher-weight transfers.
Stryker Power-LOAD cot fastener system
A powered, hydraulic system lifts and locks the gurney into the vehicle — eliminating manual lifting and the risk of a drop.
Specialized multi-person lift teams
Higher-weight transfers are staffed with extra trained EMTs — never a single attendant improvising alone.
Rated to 500 lbs, every component
Gurney, fasteners and lift system are all bariatric-rated and weight-tested as one secure setup.
Protects patient and crew alike
Powered loading means a smoother ride for you and a safer lift for the people caring for you.

Powered lift access
No stairs to climb and no strain - mechanical lift on every transfer.
Sanitized between every ride
Hospital-grade cleaning and a 50-point safety check on each vehicle.
Climate-controlled cabin
A calm, comfortable temperature for the whole trip, in any season.

Bariatric-rated gurneys to 500 lbs, loaded by a Stryker Power-LOAD system on every transfer.
