What is Critical Care Transport? 

Critical Care Transport (CCT) refers to the medical transportation of patients who require continuous and advanced medical attention while being transferred from one location to another. Whether the patient is in a hospital, at home, or at a healthcare facility, CCT services ensure that the patient’s condition is stabilized and monitored by trained medical professionals during transport. 

CCT services are essential in emergencies where life-threatening conditions such as strokes, heart attacks, severe trauma, or respiratory failure need immediate and continuous medical intervention. 

Who Can Use Critical Care Transport Services 

Critical Care Transport (CCT) services are essential for individuals in need of immediate, advanced medical care during transit. These services cater to patients with a variety of medical conditions and circumstances. Below are some of the individuals who may require CCT transport: 

  • Patients with Life-Threatening Medical Conditions: Individuals in critical condition who need continuous medical support during transport. 

  • Trauma Victims: Patients who have suffered severe injuries and require immediate, specialized care en route to a medical center. 

  • Preterm Infants and Neonates: Newborns or premature infants requiring specialized, life-sustaining care during transfer to neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). 

  • Pediatric Patients: Children who need advanced medical supervision during transport due to illness, injury, or surgery. 

  • Individuals with Severe Respiratory Conditions: Patients who suffer from conditions like respiratory failure, requiring continuous monitoring and advanced ventilation support during transit. 

  • Patients in Need of Inter-Facility Transfers: Individuals requiring transfer between medical facilities for specialized treatments or procedures not available at their current location. 

  • Patients Requiring Long-Distance Medical Transport: Those who need to be transferred over long distances to receive urgent care or specialized treatments at distant medical centers.

Types of Critical Care Transport We Provide at Infina Health 

We understand that every patient’s condition is unique. Therefore, we offer different types of critical care ambulance services tailored to specific medical needs: 

  1. Advanced Life Support (ALS)

For patients requiring intensive medical monitoring and interventions, our Advanced Life Support (ALS) services are the best option. This includes patients suffering from heart attacks, strokes, or severe respiratory issues. Our ALS-equipped vehicles are staffed with highly trained paramedics and nurses capable of managing complex medical emergencies. 

  1. Basic Life Support (BLS)

For less critical situations, but where medical assistance is still necessary, Basic Life Support (BLS) provides essential monitoring and basic care. BLS services are ideal for patients who do not require advanced interventions but still need medical supervision during transport. 

  1. Neonatal Transport

Our neonatal transport services are specifically designed for premature infants or neonates requiring special care. We use neonatal ambulances equipped with the most advanced monitoring systems and skilled neonatal nurses who provide round-the-clock care. 

  1. Pediatric Transport

For young patients needing specialized care, our pediatric critical care transport ensures that children are transported with the highest level of care. Our pediatric-trained medical teams and equipment are designed to support the unique needs of infants, toddlers, and children during transit. 

  1. Air Ambulance 

In time-sensitive situations where ground transport is insufficient, our critical care air transport services offer rapid, long-distance transport by helicopter or fixed-wing aircraft. Whether you’re transferring patients across cities or states, air ambulance services provide fast, efficient transport for patients who need urgent care. 

  1. Ground Transport

For shorter, but still critical, distances, we offer critical care ground transport services with ambulances that are fully equipped to handle a range of medical emergencies. Ground transport is ideal for more localized emergencies or hospital transfers in urban areas.
