HEMS guidelines
HEMS (Helicopter Emergency Medical Services) guidelines are protocols that ensure rapid, safe, and effective medical response by helicopter in emergencies. They outline best practices for patient assessment, stabilization, and transport, prioritizing conditions that require urgent attention. The guidelines specify crew roles, communication procedures, and safety measures to optimize care during rescue missions. They also emphasize coordination with ground teams and hospitals to ensure timely treatment. Overall, HEMS guidelines aim to improve survival rates and outcomes by providing standardized, high-quality emergency medical services using helicopters.
