A personal service

Support shaped around comfort, privacy and preference

Some travellers and families feel more comfortable being accompanied by a female nurse for personal, cultural, religious or practical reasons.

International travel can involve moments when privacy, reassurance and personal understanding are especially important. A female nurse escort offers a consistent professional presence through the agreed stages of the journey.

The traveller or family can explain relevant preferences during the initial conversation. This information is considered alongside the available clinical and travel details when preparing the journey plan.

Why request a female escort?

Dignified assistance from a female professional

The person arranging the service does not need to be female. Husbands, sons, relatives, hospitals, embassies and authorised representatives may enquire on the traveller’s behalf.

How it works

One professional presence throughout the journey

1. Tell us about the traveller. Share the proposed route, dates, escort preference and an outline of the assistance required.
2. Provide relevant details. We explain what information is needed about mobility, medication, personal care and communication.
3. Agree the journey plan. If appropriate and available, the itinerary, responsibilities and receiving arrangements are confirmed.
4. Travel with support. The female nurse remains with the traveller through the agreed journey stages.
5. Complete the handover. At the destination, the escort supports the agreed transition to the authorised person or care team.
