Patient Transport
Patient Transport refers to the process of moving patients from one location to another within a healthcare facility or to an external facility. This can include transferring patients from their hospital room to diagnostic areas, such as radiology, or transporting them to other medical facilities for specialized care.
The transport is typically carried out by trained personnel, such as paramedics or nurses, who ensure the patient's safety and comfort during the journey. Proper equipment, like stretchers or wheelchairs, is often used to facilitate the movement, and communication with medical staff is crucial to address any patient needs during transport.
