Safety First
Beyond maintaining an impressive medical track record, each member of our dedicated team at EMA Global is trained rigorously with 1 main objective in mind – safety. From the planning process to the transportation procedure, our paramount concern is safety.

Patient Safety
LEAVING NOTHING TO CHANCE
EMA Global’s medical escorts include experienced healthcare personnel and physicians who are constantly prepared to fly on short notice and help evacuate patients to medical facilities and destinations while providing the appropriate medical care. With work experience in a hospital setting, our medical escorts have the relevant hands-on experience in the treatment and care for patients that is required in a medical evacuation and repatriation situation. Similar to medical personnel providing care in a hospital, our medical escorts at EMA Global stay up-to-date with the latest and current medical knowledge. They also participate in Continuing Medical Education (CME), which involves compulsory educational activities designed to regularly develop, maintain, and expand the knowledge, professional performance and skills of our medical team.
Our training regimen is mandatory, and this enables us to provide quality care to every transported patient with the latest medical knowledge, techniques and equipment.
Our ICU-trained medical escorts are required to meet these standards:
1. 3 to 5 years of experience in ICU
2. Basic Life Support (BLS)
3. Advanced Trauma Life Support (ATLS)
4. Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS)
5. Advanced Trauma Physiology Course
6. Advanced Airway Management Class
7. Active licenses
