Our operations team take the lead from you, the event organiser, as the final level of cover remains your responsibility. We will then issue you with a formal quotation of the level of cover requested, along with our terms and conditions. If you accept this quote you can sign it and return it to us. The operations team will then send an invoice, which must be paid at time of booking to receive a confirmation of cover. It is only at this point that a contractual agreement exists between us and yourselves.

At this time they will liaise with you directly to ensure a smooth and professional service is provided.

Our staff will document every patient contact they have either on a Patient Report Form (PRF) or a Minor Injury Report Form (MIRF). These will be kept in a secure archive as per Data Protection Policies and Legislation.

Following your event we will supply you with a casualty summary report for all casualties treated at the event. This data is very basic information allowed by the Data Protection Act. (PRF / MIRF Ref, Time Frame, Age, Gender, Nature of Injury and Outcome). This information will be provided within 7 days of the event. Any further information must be obtained in writing. We may provide further information if the incident is reportable under RIDDOR. If this is the case we will obtain permission from the casualty before releasing any information. The last item you will receive is an Evaluation Form we would like to know how we did, what we did well and how we could improve our service to you.
