Hi, Debbie...we just finished going through the ACS/DHS Survey (my first!),
and I can say what seemed to be an excellent precursor to the visit was by
way of our In-House Newsletter ("The Insider"). I wrote a little piece
talking about the Survey and the tour areas the Surveyors wanted to access
as well as spoke with the Department Managers who were going to be on-site
the day of the tour to be sure they didn't have any questions or
reservations. I'm faxing you a copy of the article.......I believe it
helped everyone to at least be aware of the event and people involved.
Good Luck!!!

I was wondering if there are many flight nurses out there. Also I am looking

I would like some insights of other flight RN's and how they feel about
their job/pay. Also it seems that some states require that a flight RN have
a EMT-P as well (which im not sure i understand the reasoning for).

I've forwarded your email to some flight nurses. I can tell you in CT they
have to be RN and EMT-P. The reason is that our flight programs are air
ambulances and so must meet the state minimums for mobile intensive care
ambulances i.e. an EMT and a EMT-P.

We call ours a "Modified Trauma" In the majority of these cases the trauma
surgeon must admit the patient. If it is an isolated injury with significant
mechanism, i.e. MVC with a open tib/fib, then Trauma can consult. They have
8 hours to see the patient on a consult. They then must follow the pt for 24
hours. We rarely do those and instead have the trauma md admit and sign off
to the specialty service in 24 hours.

The criteria for surgeon presence/response is laid out by the ACS. There
are strict criteria as to when the trauma surgeon must be present within
15 mins (confirmed BP < 90, resp. compromise/obstruction, GSW to abd.,
neck or chest, GCS < 8 with mechanism attributed to trauma). You can
find this amendment at www.facs.org/dept/trauma/amend99.html. Hope this

2. Does anyone have or know of a good resource for the inpatient care for

ICU, ward level of care and discharge planning for these patients. The

HI!
Well I did some flying in canada before i left. I am now in AZ phoenix area
and am looking into programs here. Is flight nursing so low paid where you
are? here i couldnt believe it. How do you feel one should be prepared for
flight nursing? Currently im an instructor of ATCN (ATLS), ACLS, PALS and
BTLS. I think no matter what i want to fly but i am unsure about losing
skills i have learned over my years in the ER. I assume , due to the low
pay, i would end up maintaining a part time ER job anyway.
