What are the transport team qualifications? Have they had any special training?
Industry standards: There are no federal requirements regarding the medical qualifications of the flight team. Mayo MedAir standards: All Mayo MedAir transport nurses, paramedics, respiratory therapists and other specialists work at Mayo Clinic and are experienced in critical-care medicine. Transport nurses and paramedics are trained in advanced life support. Specialized teams are available for both pediatric and neonatal care. All team members are trained in flight physiology and have annual safety training. Each flight team is selected based on the patient’s unique current and potential needs, which is also the case for all equipment — from automatic external defibrillators to neonatal transporters. Flight team members are also dedicated medical transport professionals, rather than individuals pulled from other medical units when needed for a flight.
