Pam I looked at this. There are different firms in different areas. Your oxygen supplier should be able to give you contact details for a supplier in the area you wish to visit. I found it very expensive.

Hi pam123,

you can get oxygen provided whilst in Spain and claim back any expenses using your EHIC, check out the NHS Choices website:-

nhs.uk/nhsengland/healthcar...

Alternatively you could hire a portable concentrator. there is more info in our travel pack

please give us a call on 03000 030 555 for more details.

Hi Pam

We have travelled to Tenerife a couple of times and used a company called oxygen worldwide. If you use liquid they can also supply that. The email address is oxygenworldwide.com Both times the liquid tank was at the hotel waiting for us, we even had a problem filling one day and they came out the next to replace it. Hope this helps.

Regards

Tracey
