NEW YORK, Oct. 20, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Ambulnz, Inc., d/b/a DocGo, a leading provider of last-mile mobile health services and integrated medical mobility solutions that has entered into an agreement to merge with Motion Acquisition Corp. (Nasdaq: MOTN), is adding ports and augmenting its services with Carnival Corporation to include stationing DocGo response teams on board the cruise ships.

DocGo is now working with Carnival Corporation on some of the best cruise homeports in the US. Since its first launch with Carnival Corporation, DocGo has created a footprint that reaches across Galveston, Texas, Cape Canaveral, Florida, Seattle, WA, and major ports in California and Maryland.

Additionally, DocGo has deployed medical teams to provide on-ship services for the duration of the cruise. These experienced medical professionals operate alongside the ship's medical staff to support Carnival's dedication to the health and wellbeing of their guests. DocGo plans to deploy crews to the entire Carnival fleet as each ship returns to passenger sailing in the United States.

"The cruise industry is making a comeback," said Anthony Capone, president of DocGo. "Our reporting is fully integrated with SeaCare, the cruise industry's top electronic medical record system. This allows our cruise teams to provide assistance to Carnival's amazing crew with seamless efficiency."

In addition to its new onboard medical teams, DocGo will continue to expand its embarkation services into new states. Currently, it deploys over 300 healthcare professionals at ports in Florida, Texas, Washington, California, and Maryland. DocGo continues to grow its footprint in the United States and the U.K. with Mobile Health, medical transportation, community service initiatives, and additional medical services.
