Furthermore, having on-site medical standby boosts the venue’s credibility and reputation for prioritizing guest safety.

Exhibitors and vendors who are part of a convention are often busy with setting up booths, networking with attendees, or making sales. They are focused on maximizing their business opportunities and may not be aware of potential medical risks. With Infina Health’s medical services available, exhibitors can feel secure, knowing that medical assistance is just moments away should anything arise.

Types of Medical Standby Services We Provide for Conventions
Not every convention or event requires the same level of medical intervention. At Infina Health, we understand the varying needs of different events, which is why we offer a variety of medical services tailored to meet the specific demands of your event. Here’s an in-depth look at the types of standby medical services we provide:
1. Emergency Medical Standby Services
Emergencies can happen at any time, especially in large gatherings such as conventions. From heart attacks to severe allergic reactions, it’s essential to have a highly trained medical team on hand to deal with urgent situations. Our Emergency Medical Standby service ensures that we are ready for any medical emergency, large or small. Our team can stabilize patients and provide immediate care, so if transportation to a hospital is required, the patient is in the best condition possible.
2. Non-Emergency Medical Standby
While many medical situations at conventions may be urgent, others may be non-life-threatening but still require immediate attention. Our Non-Emergency Medical Standby services include general medical assessments, managing chronic conditions, administering basic treatments, and offering advice or support for attendees who may feel unwell. Whether it’s a simple case of heat exhaustion or monitoring an existing health condition, we’re here to provide comfort and ensure your attendees remain healthy throughout the event.
3. Basic Life Support (BLS) Ambulance
Our BLS Ambulance Service is ideal for events where attendees may experience medical issues that require basic stabilization, but do not necessarily need advanced life support. Whether it’s a sprained ankle, minor injury, or dizziness, our BLS ambulances are equipped with essential medical equipment, such as oxygen and basic first aid supplies, to handle less critical situations.
4. Advanced Life Support (ALS) Ambulance
For conventions with larger crowds or higher risks, we recommend our ALS Ambulance service. This service is for situations that demand more advanced medical intervention, such as cardiac events, severe injuries, or respiratory emergencies. ALS ambulances are staffed with paramedics and equipped with advanced tools, including defibrillators, intravenous fluids, and other life-saving equipment. The ALS team is trained to handle a range of complex medical emergencies and to provide the highest level of care on-site or during transport to a medical facility.
5. Critical Care Transport
In certain cases, medical emergencies at a convention might require Critical Care Transport. This service is designed for patients with severe, life-threatening conditions who need immediate, highly specialized care. Whether the patient needs mechanical ventilation, continuous drug infusions, or intensive monitoring, our Critical Care Transport team provides advanced care during transit to a hospital. This service is essential for ensuring that seriously ill patients receive the best possible care en route to specialized medical facilities.
6. Wheelchair Transport
Some attendees may have mobility challenges that make it difficult for them to navigate large convention spaces. Our Wheelchair Transport service ensures that these individuals can attend the event with comfort and dignity. Whether they need assistance moving between event areas, or are in need of medical attention, our team is on hand to provide safe, comfortable transport to and from designated areas.
7. Bariatric Transport
For attendees who are overweight or have special mobility needs, our Bariatric Transport service provides specially equipped vehicles and trained medical staff. Bariatric transport ensures that patients are moved safely, comfortably, and without any additional strain. Our staff is trained to handle the unique challenges associated with bariatric care, ensuring a dignified and safe experience for all involved.
8. First Aid Services
For less serious injuries or incidents that don’t require full medical intervention, our First Aid Services are available to provide quick and effective treatment. Whether it’s a small cut, a burn, a sprain, or another minor injury, our team can treat the situation quickly, allowing the attendee to return to the event without delay. Our first aid professionals are equipped with the necessary tools to manage a wide range of injuries efficiently.
