Question
To ask the Scottish Government whether Scottish Ambulance Service staff transporting critically ill premature babies from NHS Lanarkshire to NHS Grampian will be expected to make the journey without a break.
Answered by Minto, Jenni - Minister for Public Health and Women's Health
As has been established practice for many years, the staff and vehicle required to move critically ill patients is determined based on circumstances and clinical need. Our specialist neonatal transfer service (ScotSTAR) will transfer those babies by air or road in specialist ambulances equipped to care for neonates.
ScotSTAR will be introducing a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) which will have variations between emergency and scheduled/planned transfers. NHS Grampian will be on the outer limits for drivers but expectation would be that the journey will be done without a break.
