The escort facilitates patient discharge, journey to the airport, check in and embarkation. The escort also helps manage the patient before the flight, in-flight and during the journey home or to the hospital. Though a patient may only require minimal care, all standard emergency equipment and medication are always taken by the medical escort. |

They manage the comfort and continuity of medical care on board the aircraft. On arrival at the destination, accompany the patient to the hospital, clinic or their home.
