Stretcher ticket with Vietnam Airlines and Tarmac Service
Medevac from Hochiminh city to Melbourn city
Care of Asia receive an urgent request at mid night, early Friday morning, asking for arranging a medical stretcher service with Vietnam Airlines and tarmac access procedure flying from Ho Chi Minh city to Melbourn. For some reason, Vietnam Airlines can only approve the stretcher booking once they receive original medif signed by their authorized hospitals/medical centers and agents. Care of Asia (Medical Assistance Vietnam) was appointed to be a trust worthy partner to play an important role in this medical air evacuation.We proactively contacted patient's treating doctor of Cho Ray hospital where the patient had been admitted to learn about patient's medical conditions. After it was reassured by the TD that patient was fit to fly with medical escort doctor and nurse. Medifs were obtained by our Care of Asia (Medical Assistance Vietnam) team right away in the morning of Friday. We then submitted the medifs to Vietnam Airlines for stretcher service at their office in HCMC. One morning after that our medif submission was verified and approved by Vietnam Airlines. Stretcher booking with Vietnam Airlines is always required to reserve 72 business hours in advance. However, with our great relationship with not only Vietnam Airlines but many others airlines, we were able to speed up the stretcher reservation through the weekend. We successfully got patient onboard with stretcher confirmation for the flight in the evening of Monday, only 48 hours since Airlines medif approval. The stretcher reservation always requires tarmac access procedure for medical escorts and our ambulance to be able to get through the restricted area and keep our patient boarding the aircraft directly from the ground ambulance. Care of Asia (Medical Assistance Vietnam) team can get tarmac access done within 1 day, right away after the stretcher ticket was booked on Saturday. Our patient was smoothly flown home with safe and warm hands and sweet hearts <3
