My distinguished colleagues:
We are solidifying our policies for
carrying family members as PAX on interfacility flights (RW, BK-117)and I'd
like to ask of the group, who are able to carry PAX, in the RW setting
:
- Do you have a written policy?
- Does it include a written briefing/info
card? Signed Liablilty release?
- Who's responsibility is it to brief
(medic, nurse/rt, pilot, whole crew) ?
- Do you prohibit it or allow it?
- What specifically do you do if there's a
problem with the PAX, or the pt. crumps?
- Where do they ride, or is it dependant
upon the pt?
Any other info would be great.
Please feel free to reply private, or to the group.
TIA.
