MedSTAR Transport is a non-profit service based out of Washington Hospital Center. We utilize the outstanding patient services offered at MedStar Health facilities to further support our patients.

MedSTAR’s state-of-the-art Communications Center handles all of your patient’s needs with just one call. Regardless of the situation, we will expedite the referral, locate an admitting physician and coordinate the transport.

Strategically located Helicopter Bases throughout the Mid-Atlantic region provide reduced response times to better assist our critical care patients. Aviation services are provided by Metro Aviation.

The Ground Transport division provides Critical Care, Advanced Life Support, Basic Life Support and Wheelchair van services into or out of any MedStar Health facility. In addition we will provide critical care ground transport to all facilities with our flight crew when a flight is requested but flying is not an option.



We are currently hiring highly skilled and motivated Flight Nurses, Trauma Nurses and Communication Specialists.

COMMISSION ON ACCREDITATION OF MEDICAL TRANSPORT SYSTEMS

PUBLIC NOTICE

The Commission on Accreditation of Medical Transport Systems will conduct an accreditation site visit of: 

MedSTAR Transport in January 2012.  

The purpose of the site visit will be to evaluate the program’s compliance with nationally established medical transport standards. The site visit results will be used to determine whether, and the conditions under which accreditation should be awarded to the program.

CAMTS accreditation standards deal with issues of patient care and safety of the transport environment. Anyone believing that he or she has pertinent or valid information about such matters may request a public information interview with the CAMTS site surveyors at the time of the site visit. Information presented at the interview will be carefully evaluated for relevance to the accreditation process. Requests for public information interviews must be made in writing and sent to CAMTS no later than 5 business days before the site survey begins. The request should also indicate the nature of the information to be provided during the interview. Such request should be addressed to:

Office of the Executive Director
Commission on Accreditation of Medical Transport Systems
PO Box 130
Sandy Springs, SC 29677

The Commission will acknowledge such written requests in writing or by telephone and will inform the program of the request for an interview. The program will, in turn, notify the interviewee of the date, time and place of the meeting.

This notice is posted in accordance with the CAMTS requirements and may not be removed until the site visit is completed.
