Monday, November 13, 2023,4:09 pm
Are you thinking about travelling this Christmas whether to see family or to catch some winter sun? Portable oxygen this christmas.
It is once again that time of year when the shops are filling up with sparkly decorations, Christmas tree images, nativity scenes, robins and so forth. For some people that is a sign to book a trip away, or maybe you have already booked your holiday and now you are wondering about how to manage your oxygen requirements. At Pure O2 we have a great deal of experience helping our clients to organise their oxygen for trips abroad, both on airlines and cruise ships. We can also help supply portable oxygen concentrators to visitors to the UK.
How can I organise travelling at Christmas if I don’t already have a portable oxygen concentrator?
For those of you who don’t currently own or use an oxygen concentrator or perhaps you only have a stationary unit, don’t worry we can help you. There are a number of choices for you depending on your individual medical requirements and your budget. The best solution can be determined by speaking to one of our trusted experienced customer service team. However in the meantime here are some of the options available to enable you to continue travelling at Christmas (and throughout the year) with your oxygen requirements.
Renting a portable oxygen concentrator for travelling at Christmas
Pure O2 have a range of portable oxygen concentrators for hire , which can be taken abroad and keep you breathing freely whilst enjoying the warm sun on your face. Our rental team are at the end of the phone around the clock to answer any of your queries before, during and after your rental period. To help us to advise you which unit is best for your medical needs we will need to ask you a few questions including:
- the details of your condition (NB we will require a letter from our GP or medical practitioner)
- the number of litres of oxygen you require per minute
- your average day usage
- your age
- how mobile you are
- what activities you might wish to take part in
- any other medical conditions which may affect using the oxygen concentrator
With this information we will work out what battery time you will need and any other particular needs for example extra tubing, chargers and leads etc.
Buying an oxygen concentrator for your Christmas travels
You may decide that you would rather purchase your own oxygen concentrator so you can travel or go out and about all through the year not just at Christmas. Again we have options for you, with a wide range of new portable oxygen concentrators or alternatively you can look at our reconditioned and ex-demo units which are often barely used representing great value for money.
To find out more about our range of oxygen concentrators, which are compatible for you whilst you are travelling abroad this Christmas, speak to one of our friendly team of experts on 0161 747 2617.
