On a 911 call, you build the plan. You show up, you assess, you decide what happens next.
An interfacility transfer is different. On a transfer, you inherit a plan someone else already built. A ventilator someone else set. A drip someone else started. A patient whose baseline you were not there for.
That's the whole problem in one sentence: someone else's plan of care, now yours, in the back of a moving truck. Three questions run the entire call.
Is this inside my scope and my unit's capability? Do I have the information and the backup plan before I leave the building? Can I tell a patient problem from an equipment problem at 60 miles an hour?
Every section below is one of those three questions, worked in detail.
