Getting to a medical appointment, coming home from hospital or heading out with family shouldn’t mean struggling out of a wheelchair. Shalom Medcare’s wheelchair van service lets wheelchair users travel island-wide while staying seated in their own wheelchair. It’s safe, comfortable and arranged around you. Wheelchair transport is From $35 per trip. Book online 24 hours a day, or call +65 8442 9447 (calls answered until 10pm).
A wheelchair van built for seated wheelchair users
Our fleet includes wheelchair vans with hydraulic lifts and Welcabs with wheelchair ramps, so the wheelchair user boards without being lifted out of their chair. Once on board, the wheelchair is anchored to the floor with a safety restraint system, so it won’t move or tilt during the journey. The passenger also wears a seatbelt, and our crew will provide one if theirs is damaged.
Our service is seated wheelchair transport only. We don’t provide stretcher or emergency ambulance services. For medical emergencies such as collapse, chest pain or severe bleeding, call 995.
Wheelchair transport for every kind of trip
Our wheelchair transport is a non-emergency service for:
- Medical appointments: specialist visits, polyclinics, therapy and check-ups
- Hospital discharge: getting home safely from the ward (ward pick-up available)
- Regular treatments: dialysis, chemotherapy and rehabilitation sessions, with package rates for recurring bookings
- Leisure and family outings: day trips, gatherings and group outings
The base fare covers one wheelchair user plus three caregivers. Our vans can take up to one wheelchair plus eight passengers, or other seating configurations as shown on our Rates & Bookings page. Additional wheelchair or ambulant passengers can be added.

- Ward pick-up from inside the hospital
- Bed-to-wheelchair transfer
- Staircase transfer for homes without lift access
