Direct-to-patient delivery.
Life Couriers are healthcare at home experts, with a direct-to-patient service that consistently maintains an outstanding 99.9% first-time delivery success rate.
With a UK-wide warehousing and delivery network combined with a service built on compassion and care, we’ve grown over the last 20+ years to become a trusted logistics provider for both the NHS and private healthcare companies.
Radiopharma logistics.
Transporting nuclear medicine requires unprecedented logistics expertise and reliability.
It’s our job to make sure that these life-saving medicines and diagnostics get to hospitals and clinics on time, every time.
Medical device logistics.
Being able to safely collect, store and deliver clean and contaminated medical items is a specialist form of logistics, and we pride ourselves on being experts in this field.
A great example of this is our work with the Norfolk Community Health and Care NHS Trust. Since 2018, we’ve been collecting and delivering essential items such as sterile surgical equipment and mattresses, as well as securely handling internal mail and patient records.
Clinical trial logistics.
Successful clinical trials require optimal supply chain solutions, with specialist knowledge of healthcare logistics and a commitment to quality, efficiency, inventory management, compliance and reliable transportation networks.
Let’s put your clinical trial supply chain under the microscope.
Life Science logistics.
Life Couriers are experts in handling and delivering sensitive materials, including blood and laboratory specimens.
Our recent work with University College London (UCL) collecting and transporting blood samples to laboratories was crucial in the COVID-19 vaccine response.
Temperature control, full visibility, and an accredited supply chain you can rely on. It’s the reason we’re a trusted Life Science logistics provider.
Test kit fulfilment.
Over the past couple of years, the demand for our test kit fulfilment service has increased hugely, largely due to the COVID pandemic, and the PCR and lateral flow tests that quickly became a part of all our lives.
Life Couriers were well placed to handle this demand, owing to our previous experience fulfilling healthcare test kits stretching back many years.
As a result, we’re able to quickly deliver test kits directly to homes and businesses, with same day collection available and direct delivery to the lab for results.
Medication home delivery.
Being able to order prescriptions and supplements online is not only convenient, for some it is their only option due to mobility or medical limitations.
Working with online pharmacies, we’re experienced in delivering directly to patients’ homes, offering a secure and discreet service that is trusted by the likes of the NHS.
Fully tracked, fast and bespoke – it’s why Life Couriers are market leaders in UK healthcare logistics.
