O&H to launch four-in-one PTV

A modular patient transport vehicle that offers four lay-out options in one is being launched by Goole-based vehicle converter O&H Vehicle Conversions (O&H).

The Flex PTS can be converted for seated, stretcher, wheelchair and bariatric use. Its single platform design conforms to Care Quality Commission standards, enables quick changes to different formats, keeps operator and maintenance training to a minimum and reduces the need for short-term or spot-hire says O&H.

The vehicle also uses lighter, stronger aerospace-type build materials that increase vehicle durability and reduce weight and fuel consumption and cut CO₂ emissions.

Specific Flex PTS versions or 'scenarios' supplied by O&H include seated; seated with wheelchair; stretcher-capable; stretcher-wheelchair capable; bariatric/seated; and bariatric/wheelchair.
