Hospital Transport and Post Discharge support

As part of a contract with the NHS, we are providing transport home from hospital and 6 weeks of support to allow patients time to regain their independence and reduce re-admittance. This service is for Derby City residents only that have been referred by a health care professional.

helping patients feel ready for home

When arriving home, all patients will receive a home check, and we will complete any essential cleaning jobs to get them settled.

  • Shopping online or in person
  • Transport to medical appointments
