Urgent patient transport

Ambuce is the market leader in the field of 112 and other urgent transport such as urgent private transport, urgent neonatal transport and other forms of urgent specialized medical transport. Our services are mainly located in the province of Antwerp, but we are also active in Brussels, Flemish Brabant, East and West Flanders and Limburg.

We provide Urgent Medical Assistance (DGH), both from hospitals and private locations with a 24/7 permanence. The crew always consists of 2 certified ambulance drivers who are in possession of a 112 DGH badge.

In the event of an emergency, our ambulance will immediately depart for the person(s) in need of help. Our emergency services will treat the patient with the utmost care and take them to the nearest or most suitable 112-approved hospital for further care. However, if the victim is in a critical condition, our emergency services will request assistance from the MUG or the PIT. The MUG team consists of a doctor and a nurse.

Urgent Medical Assistance is coordinated by the 112 Help Centre (HC112) – popularly known as ‘the 100’ – which is under the supervision of the Ministry of Health. This centre receives the calls and determines which ambulance is sent out.

However, if you do not wish to be transported to the nearest hospital as required by law, and your medical condition allows this, call the central Ambuce number 078/05 44 44. You will then have a free choice.
