Does BMF have a system of equipment retrieval for patients flown from the scene or trauma patients flown from hospital Emergency Departments?
Yes. As a courtesy to all EMS providers, BMF has a dedicated equipment retrieval employee who makes every effort to retrieve, clean, and deliver equipment to the Fire and Police Departments, hospitals, and EMS agencies. It is very important that pieces of equipment be LABELED clearly with the agency’s ENTIRE name to facilitate tracking at different hospital locations.
