How We Manage Onboard Medical Emergencies

Our Medical Escort service ensures that every aspect of the passenger’s health and well-being is carefully monitored throughout their journey. Here’s how we manage onboard medical emergencies:

Pre-Flight Assessment

Before the flight, our medical team conducts a thorough health assessment to understand the passenger’s medical history, current condition, and specific needs.

Based on the assessment, we prepare a customized care plan and provide recommendations on the best course of action, including the need for medications, medical equipment, and any special arrangements with the airline.

Continuous Medical Support During Flight

Skilled Medical Professionals: Our medical escorts are experienced healthcare professionals, such as doctors or registered nurses, trained in emergency care, first aid, and aviation medicine.

Onboard Monitoring: Our escorts ensure that the passenger’s vital signs are monitored throughout the flight, including heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen levels, and more.

Medication Management: We ensure that all prescribed medications are taken on schedule and are available in case of an emergency, keeping track of dosages and any necessary adjustments.

Emergency Equipment: We are fully equipped with medical kits that include essential supplies like oxygen, defibrillators, first aid supplies, and emergency medications. If an unexpected situation arises, we are prepared to act quickly.

Coordination with the Airline Crew

Smooth Communication: Our medical escort coordinates closely with the airline's flight crew, ensuring that they are aware of the passenger’s medical condition and any special requirements.

In-Flight Support: If needed, the escort can work alongside the flight attendants to manage any in-flight medical emergencies. This ensures that the passenger receives prompt care and attention, without compromising the safety or comfort of other passengers.

⁠Handling Emergencies and Critical Care

Onboard Emergencies: In the event of a serious medical emergency, our escort is trained to manage critical situations, such as cardiac arrest, severe allergic reactions, breathing difficulties, or seizures. Our team is equipped to handle everything from basic first aid to life-saving procedures.

Medical Advice and Communication: If the situation requires additional expertise, we can consult with medical professionals on the ground via satellite phone or other communication tools, ensuring that the best possible care is provided at all times.

Post-Flight Care and Handover

Upon landing, our medical escort ensures that the passenger is safely handed over to appropriate healthcare providers or facilities if necessary. We provide a detailed medical report to the receiving healthcare team, outlining any treatment or care provided during the flight.
