Transporting a patient with a facial injury
When transporting a patient with a facial injury, it is MOST important to be as descriptive as possible with the hospital regarding the patient’s injuries because:
most patients with facial trauma will need surgery.
they must make arrangements for an ICU bed.
it saves time on repeat assessments at the hospital.
they may need to call a specialist to see the patient.
