Aeromedical patient transfer.
Aeromedical evacuation involves the transfer of patients in a variety of aircraft types (both fixed-wing and helicopters). The patients' condition will hopefully be maintained or improved during the transfer. The escorting doctor should be aware of the differences between working in the airborne environment and working in the static ground-based facility.
