›› Company staff

 

Company staff include doctors, nurses and paramedics, all of whom go through a very thorough screening, which includes a check on their professional qualifications and Statutory Registration.

All staff are required to ensure that they are up to date with professional advances. This is enhanced by thorough company training, and by ensuring that all post-graduate educational courses necessary are both available and attended by the individual.

All flight medical crews are trained in aviation physiology and experienced in the transfer of patients by air.

You can rest assured that the patient is in the safest possible hands, and will receive the best possible care from highly experienced professionals.

High standards of health, exacting physical requirements and compliance with severe immunisation schedules, ensure that staff are always at their professional best.

• Staff are thoroughly grounded in air safety and a number of them hold qualifications recognised by the Aviation Authority.
• Staff are encouraged to have available visas from a variety of countries, thus ensuring the ability to enter at very short notice.

It is company policy that staff on duty wear the company uniform. This has the effect of making staff identifiable both as individuals and as a team. It also raises the individual's feelings of being a team member and ensures a smart appearance and presentation. Additionally, it can be invaluable in gaining co-operation from local officials.
