Not long ago Dan showed how an AMS “Edge II” long-channel rear access minivan could be further adapted for use as Non-Emergency Medical Transportation. He's back with an updated look at what we can do for you!
Safely transporting a patient on a gurney to a doctor visit or clinic appointment is now even easier!
Also, this lowered-floor minivan with a folding ramp can alternately be used to convey up to 2 wheelchair users, and/or 2 passengers in the mid-cabin seats.

I wish I had a van like this one for my electric wheelchair. I LOVE THE RAMPS but NOT THE LIFTS, lifts SCARE the hell out of me.... and I hate that MOST of the vans that have LOW WINDOWS AND A LOW ROOF, see the thing is that my electric wheelchair is high and when I look out the windows, most what I see is the ground, and sometimes I touch the roof with my head and that is wrong, you know? and MOST of the times they would put some kind of the logos on the windows, making me feel like as if I am in some cage...... I wish that they WOULD BUILD A SPECIAL VANS for the wheelchair people.....I have been paralyzed for 9 years now and finally I get CCT program in a Philadelphia to give me a ride any of the trips just for $8 dollars from Philadelphia, but their system is sooooo bad because to get you back it may take them 5 or 7 hours before they will pick you up, and that's is soo bad for me because I don't want my bottom to break down again, you know? and I DON'T want to sit somewhere in my chair for 7 hours and wait for them to come to pick me up.... and I have to come back to my nursing home in time. I have talked to so many of the people and all of them say the same thing that the CCT won't pick them up in time..I get only $45 dollars a month from my nursing home, and the rest the nursing home takes it I believe. so, where can I go? and even here in the nursing home they have a yard where most of the people are SMOKING the cigarettes, and I DON'T like that at all because of I DON'T SMOKE....I wish somebody would buy me a wheelchar van even if it's old and used. may GOD bless you all....

Use of proper body mechanics lifting the stretcher is not shown in this video. And it looks as thought a back injury is likely when loading & unloading the stretcher

Ha, yes! We'll leave proper stretcher-handling to EMTs and NEMTs, and focus on our expertise in wheelchair van manufacturing. :)

AMS Vans be careful yourselves. During demonstrations, you can get hurt even lowering the empty stretcher. Squat, use your legs. But my concern is also for those of us who would have to load a large patient up that ramp and reaching in, bending at the waist pushing that heavy load. Even the average sized person. I'm not sure the design is safest. As an EMT with back injuries, and only being 5 ft tall. I love the idea because in NH, we use ambulance crews unnecessarily for stretcher transports.
