Critical Care Transport Handoff Tool | IFT Bedside Report Card

Critical Care IFT Bedside Report Card

A printable handoff tool for critical care transport clinicians.

High-acuity interfacility transfers move fast. The sending report is often rushed, details get scattered across the chart, and the receiving handoff needs to be clear, concise, and complete.

The IFT Bedside Report Card gives transport clinicians a structured way to gather the right information before leaving the sending facility and organize the report they give on arrival.

This 2-page printable PDF is designed for critical care transport nurses, paramedics, flight teams, CCT providers, and EMS clinicians who manage complex IFT patients.
