🔍 Key Concepts

• Medical maritime code groups (M–A–_) used in communications with ships with doctors/hospitals on board • The specific code group that means arranging a rendezvous position to transfer a patient • Difference between codes that request advice, treatment instructions, or evacuation/transfer

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: which option best matches a situation where you want to meet at an agreed position so the injured person can be taken off your ship? • Consider: which code is used when the priority is evacuation to another vessel, not just medical advice over radio? • Think about how medical codes are grouped: do some codes relate more to sending information and others to moving the patient?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm which M–A– code specifically refers to rendezvous or transfer of patient rather than just consultation • Check that the meaning involves a ship with a doctor/hospital on board, not shore-based facilities • Verify in the medical code list that the chosen group clearly implies evacuation/embarkation of the patient onto the other ship
