Escort offers tailored in-hospital mobility solutions for individuals facing mobility challenges, including people with disabilities, the elderly, and patients seeking medical treatment. Designed to address the inconvenience and discomfort of navigating large hospital environments, our vehicles provide seamless assistance for unassisted mobility during medical visits.



Equipped with advanced features, our vehicles can be reserved via phone call before hospital arrival, ensuring prompt assistance upon arrival. The vehicles feature a rotating shaft at the bottom that automatically senses and positions itself at the car door, facilitating effortless transfer from the car seat to the vehicle.



Upon sensing the patient's health insurance card, our smart mobile vehicles seamlessly integrate into the hospital's medical system, autonomously navigating to different clinics for examinations and medication retrieval. With options for both standing and riding configurations, users can customize the vehicle to suit their preferences.



Safety is paramount, with foot pedals featuring pedal brakes enhancing stability and security compared to traditional wheelchairs. Each vehicle is equipped with a user-friendly smart screen, providing real-time location tracking and manual adjustment options to meet individual needs.



After assisting the medical patient, our vehicles autonomously return to the charging station, alleviating concerns of insufficient wheelchairs and disorderly placement within hospitals. With our smart mobile vehicles, we aim to revolutionize in-hospital mobility, ensuring comfort, convenience, and dignity for all patients.
