Vehicle and prop hire for productions
ProMed have available a range of vehicles which can be used in television and film shoots. Our frontline emergency ambulances are great either as a background prop or in action shots. Rapid Response Vehicles are also suitable for showing ambulance staff arriving to a scene.
Alongside our vehicle fleet we can provide a selection of medical props ranging from heart monitors to ambulance trolleys. We can arrange for the use of any equipment or uniform, should you require; alternatively, we can provide suitable staff as “extras” to be in the background.
