Bringing a Companion on a Wheelchair or Stretcher Trip

It’s completely understandable to want to be there when your loved one is being transported to an appointment, facility, or back home after care. Many families ask if someone can ride along during the trip—and the answer is yes. Skyline Transport allows one companion to ride along on both wheelchair and stretcher transports.

We know how much it can mean to have a familiar face nearby. Whether it’s offering comfort, helping with check-in, or simply being present during the ride, companions are always welcome when space allows. Our vehicles are designed for comfort and accessibility, with a secure setup for the wheelchair or stretcher and a designated seat for one additional passenger.

If someone will be riding along, please mention it when booking so the right vehicle can be assigned. For stretcher trips, the companion will have a nearby seat inside the vehicle, allowing them to stay close throughout the transport while the client remains safely secured on the stretcher.

Every Skyline Transport ride is handled with care, professionalism, and attention to detail. Whether it’s a short appointment or a longer facility transfer, we make sure both the client and companion are comfortable and informed every step of the way.
