Patient-Centered Care: Every decision and action taken by Mobility Transporters LLC is focused on the well-being and safety of the patient.

Respect & Professionalism: Our employees are expected to treat patients, healthcare staff, and colleagues with respect, professionalism, and compassion at all times.

Communication: Employees should always communicate clearly and effectively with patients, healthcare providers, and fellow team members. Any issues or concerns should be addressed promptly and professionally.

5. Transport Procedures

Patient Identification

Verify Patient Identity: Before beginning transport, all employees must verify the patient’s name, room number, and transport order. This should be done by cross-checking the work order provided by the dispatch team with the patient’s information at the pickup location.

Confirm Special Requirements: Ensure that any specific requirements related to the patient’s condition (e.g., stretcher or wheelchair) are understood and met.

Equipment Setup (Wheelchair/Stretcher)

Proper Equipment Selection: Always ensure that the appropriate transport equipment is used:

Wheelchair Mode: For patients who can sit upright and do not require extensive medical supervision during transport.

Stretcher Mode: For patients who require lying down during transport or those who are bedridden or have mobility issues.

The Traversa Wheelchair/Stretcher Convertible should always be set to stretcher mode for patients requiring stretcher transport. A clear checklist will be used to confirm this setup prior to leaving the facility.

Inspection of Equipment: All equipment must be checked for safety and functionality before use. Ensure that the stretcher is securely locked, and that all wheels and straps are in proper working order.

Transport Protocol

Safe Handling of Patients: When moving patients, employees must ensure proper lifting techniques to prevent injury. Use of lifting equipment is mandatory where required.

Patient Comfort & Safety: Patients should be transported in a manner that minimizes discomfort or distress. Always secure the patient using safety straps when on a stretcher.

No Interruption During Transport: Personal conversations or mobile phone use is prohibited while transporting patients. The focus must remain on patient care and transport safety.

Communication & Documentation

Communication with Healthcare Providers: Upon arrival at the transport location, employees must check in with the attending nurse or facility staff. Any discrepancies with the transport order (e.g., wrong patient or equipment) must be immediately reported.

Documentation: Employees must complete all required paperwork, confirming the patient’s name, destination, and time of pickup/drop-off. This documentation should be submitted to the dispatch team upon completion of each transport.

6. Emergency Procedures

In case of emergency situations (e.g., patient medical emergencies, accidents, etc.) during transport:

Contact 911 Immediately if there is any medical emergency or if the patient’s condition deteriorates.

Notify the Dispatch Team as soon as possible, and provide them with the necessary details for documentation.

Secure the Scene: If there’s an accident or incident, ensure the safety of the patient and all involved parties. Do not attempt to move the patient unless necessary for safety reasons.

7. Quality Control & Compliance

Routine Audits: Mobility Transporters LLC will conduct periodic audits to ensure compliance with policies, including random reviews of work orders, patient transports, and employee performance.
