I flew medivac for over 15 years and we had this pop up many times. If there was a fire truck in the area they would "stand watch" while we were refueling, and the patient was unbelted and oxygen was discontinued until the operation was completed.

Some people just do not understand that the SOP cannot be followed everytime, and a medivac flight is one of them.
