I am looking for the standard of care when transporting a patient via a hospital gurney from the hospital to the helipad and vice versa. For example is there a standrad as to how many crew members should be with the patient and where each of the crew should be situated? Also , Is there a standard of care re securing the patient litter to the hospital gurney? Is there a standard of care re the decision to hot-load a patient? IF you have wheels on your litter, is there a standard of care that says these wheels should be turned out when the litter is put on the gurney to prevent sliding off the gurney? Looking forward to your relies.
