So I’m just trying to gather all the information I can at this point. My BIL was in a pretty bad motorcycle accident in the Dominican on Saturday night. He had emergency surgery on his brain and has been sedated and on the ventilator since. He is doing ok, severely injured obviously, but is not requiring as much sedation, is more responsive, although still on the vent. Anyway, when he is ready to medevac out, I am mostly familiar with the process (I am a NICU nurse, we do transport a lot). I have been in contact with a medevac company here that was recommended by a colleague. I have been connected with a doc in JAX who will accept him as a patient (also through a colleague/family friend). I know when we are ready, the doctor here will have to contact the transfer center at the accepting hospital. I just want to make sure my bases are all covered and I’m asking all the right questions. Any input/advice/encouragement would be great.

So for the curious I managed to get him out. It was quite the ordeal. He’s lucky to be alive and not paralysed. But now if anyone needs advice on the medevac process I’m now well versed! 🤣
