Welcome
to Mercy Regional of Oklahoma
Mercy Regional of Oklahoma began operations in Northeast
Oklahoma on June 16th, 2006 and has quickly established
itself as the premier private ambulance service
in the region.
Mobile
Intensive Care
All of our ambulances are equipped with state of
the art equipment and highly trained personnel.
But we recognize and understand that routinely there
are transports that require a higher level of paramedic
service for the inter-facility transport care of
critically ill or injured patients. MRO can offer
the most advanced level of care available by ground
ambulance transportation using our MICU ( Mobile
Intensive Care Unit ). Our paramedics complete additional
classroom and hospital based clinical education.
This extra education allows them to monitor and
treat these critical patients during transport.
MICU’s are able to transport patients on ventilators
and multiple or extensive intravenous lines and
IV medication administration via multiple chamber
pumps. The benefit to hospitals is that they do
not need to send their equipment or extra personnel
unless they want to. These units are available to
respond within minutes after the call is received
from the requesting hospital. MICU transports are
commonly used for the following situations, but
are not limited to:
|
|
| |
•
ICU to ICU transfers for a critical patient or a
patient with extensive medication drips, ventilator
support, chest tube management, and or invasive
monitoring.
•
ER to ER transfers to immediate higher level of
care facility for the acutely injured or critically
ill patient.
•
Specialty Hospital to Hospital ICU
•
Hospital to Specialty Hospital transport for long
term acute care of critical patient |

Non
Emergent Transports
MRO provides a wide variety of non emergent transports
for patients from various types of medical facilities
and conditions. These transfers can be scheduled
in advance or on an emergent basis. These units
can be staffed for basic life support or advanced
life support depending on call type or request.
All EMT’s providing basic life support transport
of this type are trained in basic airway management,
bleeding control, 02 administration, CPR, orthopedic
care, plus much more. Non emergent transports are
commonly used for the following:
|
| |
•
Local emergency room visits or discharge
• Transfer
from one hospital to another for higher level of
care
•
Transports from Nursing Care facilities
• Trips to
and from cancer treatment centers
•
Trips to and from dialysis centers
• Various
retirement communities
•
Doctor office appointments
These are for transports of patients via ambulance.

Long
Distance Transfers
MRO can provide a wide variety of long distance
transports for all types of patients. We can consult
with family members and case managers in scheduling
these transports. We recognize the difficulty in
planning for a discharge of a patient from your
facility to a long distance facility or residence.
The staff at MRO is prepared and willing to make
this transport as smooth and pleasant for all involved.
Please call our communication center 24 hours a
day for free consultation and quote for any sort
of long distance transport. |
