ABSTRACT
Emergency departments must comply with the rules of patient transportation. The aim of this study was to find out the compliance of the emergency departments in our region with patient transport the rules and regulations. 180 patients transported to our emergency department by an ambulance from another hospital, between 01.05.1999-01.07.1999 were analyzed. ACEP's (American College of Emergency Physicians) patient transportation rules were taken as a reference for comparison. Our findings have shown that the compliance to these rules is insufficient. Results of the study, will be presented to our colleagues working in the emergency departments in our region, in one of our monthly trauma meetings. State Department of health in the city, two state hospitals and Social Security hospitals in the region will also be informed about the results so that certain guidelines for better patient transportation can be established in the region.
