Lessons Learned from Aviation Accidents: The NTSB Family Assistance Model
An accident is a tragedy that all members of the air medical community dread. Responding effectively in the chaotic environment following an accident seems like a monumental challenge for even the most prepared and capable team. This session will show you how to integrate proven aviation accident response strategies into your emergency and accident planning process while providing lessons learned from past aviation and transportation disasters. Since the passage of the Aviation Disaster Family Assistance Act of 1996, the NTSB has developed a comprehensive and effective model for disaster response following accidents. The Act places the NTSB in a coordination role in order to ensure that accident victims and their families receive information and access to services. Learn how the NTSB works with support groups to coordinate an effective response following an accident. This presentation will review the requirements under the Act and examine the application of the model to other aircraft operations and modes of transportation. This session will also highlight the MedEvac Foundation’s new Family Grant Fund, a grant program designed to help programs and operators respond to the needs of crew and patient families following a serious or fatal accident.
Sponsored by the MedEvac Foundation International, held on Tuesday, October 27th 1600-1700h.
