Model Evacuations
We can help your client through any number of circumstances, whether it's a basic assistance evacuation, transporting your client from hospital to home or from hospital to hospital, or monitoring them during a critical care evacuation.
Basic Assistance
Your client may simply need an escort to handle a wheelchair or help them into the bathroom. Upon arrival at home, our escort would carefully check the house for slipping hazards, wheelchair access, etc. This may seem like a simple transport, but vital to the well-being of someone who might be unstable on crutches. If needed, the escort would show where and how to set up a place for the client to "live" if their room is inaccessible due to stairs, before releasing care to the family member at home that is taking over the care.
Hospital
to Home
Suppose your client is recovering from pulmonary
problems. Since flying introduces the real risk
of hypoxia, our escort would pre-arrange supplemental
oxygen
for the evacuation, monitor the client during flight and administer
oxygen as ordered and as required. Upon arrival,
our nurse may decide the oxygen saturation level
is inadequate without supplemental oxygen, and divert
the client to a hospital rather than to the client's
home, until home oxygen can be arranged.
Hospital
to Hospital
Someone hospitalized overseas for significant illness
or injury may want to complete their treatment in
a hospital closer to home. Our escort would accompany
the client, giving IV antibiotics and medications,
cleaning wounds and continually assessing the client
en route to the new hospital.
Critical
Care
Our critical-care-trained nurses and physicians
are capable of handling clients with serious medical
issues. It takes significant preparation and anticipation
to ensure adequate infrastructure is in place to
transport a client who requires cardiac and invasive
line monitoring, and who may be on a ventilator.
We are fully equipped and prepared to handle such
a client.
