Doha, Qatar International Organization for Migration Full time

Duty Station**:Doha, Qatar**

Classification**:Medical Escort**

Estimated Start Date**:As soon as possible**

Closing Date**:15 September 2024**
- Established in 1951, IOM is a Related Organization of the United Nations, and as the leading UN agency in the field of migration, works closely with governmental, intergovernmental and non-governmental partners. IOM is dedicated to promoting humane and orderly migration for the benefit of all. It does so by providing services and advice to governments and migrants._
- **Context**:_

Under the overall guidance of the Regional Health Assessments Programme (HAP) coordinator, the direct supervision of the Escort focal persons at the regional office or in Qatar the incumbent will provide health assistance to the migrants during all phases of their journey under IOM care, which would include medical escort, operational support, pre-departure health checks and general assistance such as seating, help with meals and attending to personal hygiene.

The Medical Escort is expected to carry out his/her duties in accordance with strictest moral and ethical standards and with due respect for gender and socio-cultural differences of the migrants. The Medical Escort is likewise responsible for having a valid passport (validity of which should be not less than six months remaining). The ME (Medical Escort) should remain flexible and adaptable in the event of any change in plans, as last-minute cancellations or changes to itineraries can occur.
- **Core Functions / Responsibilities**:_

1. Verify validity of passport, visa and medical license. Ensure that the copy of medical license is prepared for the trip.

2. Familiarization with the escorted beneficiary(ies) and their medical files, as well as discussion and planning with the IOM medical team in the country of departure or the Regional Office (RO) and with external specialists, as necessary. *Remote consultations with the receiving healthcare provider, IOM HQ or specialists in other IOM country offices may be necessary depending on the situation and are particularly important for severe medical cases.*

3. Ensure that the Medical Information Form (MEDIF) or Medical Information Form for Air Travel (MEDA) has been submitted to the respective airline and their approval received.

4. Examine all aspects of the trip well in advance of departure, such as flight and layover duration, access to medical facilities, and special travel arrangements (e.g. wheelchair, special seating or stretcher, oxygen, ambulance, and others).

5. Become familiarized and sign off on the written Medical Escort Plan (MEP). Ensure that the MEP includes specific instructions and actions to be taken during transit and destination, such as focal persons to be met, communications to be maintained with identified parties, and options in the event of contingencies. The MEP should also specify the frequency and nature of vital signs and other parameters to monitor and document (e.g. oxygen saturation in flight), as well as which interventions to perform and the scope of an interim "fitness to travel" assessment that should be conducted between travel segments, as applicable. If such information is not provided, request clarifications of each point from the IOM case managers.

6. Obtain emergency contact information (for both OPS and MHD staff) for use in transit, at the port of entry (POE) and at the final destination (FD).

7. Check the content of the medical escort’s kit, request additional medication or medical equipment as needed. Maintain a written inventory of supplies used during travel to be submitted to the IOM mission upon return.

8. Ensure that several copies of the Medical Escort forms MH06-B and MH06-D are prepared for the trip, and one set of forms MH06-A and MH06-C.

9. Ensure that a mobile phone with international roaming is available and in good order. Keep open communication channels before departure, in transit (if necessary, in-flight) and upon arrival.

10. Introduce him/herself and brief patients and their families on the MEP prior to travel. Patients should be briefed on what to expect from the ME service, including the responsibilities of an IOM ME towards escorted cases (e.g. escorted patients and their families should be aware that the escort is required to remain in close proximity to the escorted case throughout the journey)

11. Ensure that the escorted individual(s) is/are fit to travel prior to departure. The ME reserves the right to cancel the escorted individual(s) from a flight after evaluating their clinical condition if they are deemed not fit to travel. The cancellation should be done in coordination with the IOM physician or the relevant RO. Immediately notify the relevant MHD and Operations staff of any event that may result in a delay/alteration of the plans.

**In transit**:
12. Introduce him/herself to airplane cabin staff, briefly explain the ME’s duties and engage their assistance in case of a medical emergency. Pr
