Thanks for that, but if that is the case how are you instructed to deal with the following hypothetical situation.
A stretcher case, a guy with a broken neck or something similar. Evacuating him might kill him, leaving him might also. Your not medically in the position to make any decision as to whether moving a patient might actually be more hazardous.
In a dangerous case like this is a doctor required to be always travelling with the patient so that he can make that decision, or is your decision final. the discretion to carry the passenger in the first place is the airlines so do they insist on the doctor being present before they allow him even on board.
Its understood that most evacs are safe and there is no real immediate danger, only a few cases are really important get out now or die situations.
There must be some kind of guideline from the airlines as to how to deal with this.
