Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs)

These are a selection of the most relevant Retrieve SOPs. They have been developed and approved for Retrieve use and are shared for information. We are happy to share many of our other operational SOPs we have on a case-by-case basis.

NOTE: We are a fully digital service and update our SOPs regularly. To ensure you have the latest version of our documents, we encourage you not to download or print them.


Transfer risk assessment and clinical escorts

For situations where we do not have a full team, this document describes how we risk assess each patient and determine the need for a clinical escort (appropriately trained doctor or ACCP) to accompany our Transfer Practitioner. It has been approved by the South West Critical Care Network Board.
