Critically Ill Cancer Patient Transfer from Delhi to Guwahati by Road Ambulance


Against All Odds: Life Savers Ambulance Service Safely Transfers Critically Ill Cancer Patient from Delhi to Guwahati by Road
When all hope seems lost, compassion, dedication, and professional expertise can make the impossible happen. This was once again proven by Life Savers Ambulance Service, which successfully handled one of the most challenging long-distance road transfers—a critically ill 55-year-old female cancer patient from Delhi to Guwahati, covering a 2015 km journey.
The Patient’s Critical Condition
The patient, a 55-year-old woman admitted to Dharamshila Hospital, Delhi, was battling advanced tongue cancer. Her condition had deteriorated to a severe level—a tracheostomy had been performed, and her tongue was surgically removed. Breathing and communication were already extremely difficult. The medical team at the hospital had declared her condition highly unstable, and her family had lost hope that she could survive the journey back home to Guwahati.
Emotionally drained and financially exhausted, the family wanted nothing more than for her to reach her hometown and spend her remaining days among loved ones. However, transporting a patient in such a fragile state across more than 2000 kilometers by road was a daunting task—one that most would consider impossible.
The Challenge
Transporting a patient with a tracheostomy, a completely removed tongue, and severely compromised health over such a long distance posed multiple life-threatening challenges:
- Continuous oxygen support and airway monitoring were mandatory throughout the trip.
- Any slight movement or delay could cause breathing distress.
- Road conditions, temperature changes, and prolonged travel time added further risk.
- Financial constraints left the family with limited options for expensive air transfers.
But Life Savers Ambulance Service is known for never giving up. Understanding both the emotional and financial struggles of the family, the team decided to take on this high-risk case—not as a transfer, but as a mission of humanity.
Planning the Impossible Journey
After assessing the patient’s condition, Life Savers Ambulance Service presented the family with multiple transport options—including air ambulance, train medical escort, and road ambulance. Due to budget limitations, the family chose road transfer, and the team immediately started preparing for one of their longest and most delicate missions.
A fully equipped ICU road ambulance was arranged with:
- Advanced life support systems (ALS)
- Ventilator, oxygen cylinder, infusion pumps, and suction machine
- Backup medical supplies for emergencies
- Trained paramedic and doctor on board throughout the journey
The ambulance was specifically designed to ensure vibration-free movement, temperature control, and comfortable cushioning to avoid any additional discomfort to the patient.
Team Behind the Mission
To ensure safety, Life Savers Ambulance Service deployed its most experienced ICU medical team, including a critical care doctor and an expert paramedic. Their role was to maintain continuous monitoring of:
- Oxygen saturation levels
- Heart rate and blood pressure
- Airway clearance and tracheostomy tube care
- Pain management and medicine infusion
Their focus was to keep the patient stable and comfortable throughout the journey, no matter how long it took. 2015 Kilometers of DeterminationThe road journey from Delhi to Guwahati spanned 2015 kilometers—a route that passed through multiple states, changing climates, and road conditions. It required precision planning, fuel and medical stopovers, and constant communication with the patient’s relatives.
During the transfer:
- The medical team ensured continuous oxygen flow through the tracheostomy tube.
- The patient was carefully positioned on a medical-grade air mattress to prevent back sores.
- Every few hours, the patient’s vitals were checked and logged.
- Communication was maintained with the family throughout to keep them reassured.
Despite the odds and the length of the journey, the patient remained stable throughout—a testament to the professionalism, preparedness, and human touch of the Life Savers team.
A Journey of Hope Fulfilled
After several continuous hours on the road, the patient finally reached her native place in Guwahati—alive, stable, and surrounded by her family members. For her loved ones, it was more than a medical transfer—it was a miracle of compassion and care.
