Our Role – What We Do

At Global Travel Companions, we provide nurse escort and medical repatriation services designed to ensure safe, comfortable travel for patients who require extra support during their journey. Our experienced flight nurses offer non-invasive monitoring, reassurance, and assistance throughout the trip, following your treating doctor’s instructions at every stage.

Whether it’s oxygen support via an airline-approved portable oxygen concentrator (POC) or help with pre-prescribed medication, our role is to give you peace of mind during air travel. We handle logistics coordination, liaise with airlines for special arrangements, and ensure everything runs smoothly from departure to destination.

Who we help

Our nurse escort services are ideal for:

Patients recovering from illness or surgery who are medically stable but need professional supervision during travel.
Older travelers and vulnerable passengers who require extra reassurance and support on long journeys.
Families arranging international medical repatriation for loved ones who cannot travel alone.

From non-emergency medical escorts to compassionate companionship for those who need additional assistance, we make global travel safer and stress-free.

Our Process

Our streamlined process ensures safety and compliance every step of the way:

Doctor’s Clearance – Your treating physician provides a Fitness-to-Fly certificate confirming you’re safe to travel and prescribes any necessary medications or oxygen support.
Tailored Care Plan – We use this information to create a clear, structured plan for your journey, including medication schedules, oxygen settings, and monitoring requirements.
Nurse Escort Service – A qualified flight nurse accompanies you, offering vital sign monitoring, reassurance, and assistance throughout your trip. All care is delivered strictly under your doctor’s instructions—we do not diagnose, prescribe, or initiate treatment.

With Global Travel Companions, you’re in safe, professional hands from door to door
