If ambulance transportation is deemed inappropriate for self-sponsored cadets, where should they be transported?

When ambulance transportation is not appropriate for self-sponsored cadets, they should be transported to Student Health Services or an approved medical provider. This choice ensures that the cadet receives proper medical evaluation and care in a controlled environment designed for health services. Student Health Services typically has trained personnel who can provide the necessary assessment, treatment, and follow-up as required based on the cadet's condition.

Transporting to a personal home or an unauthorized place may result in inadequate medical attention, where the cadet could potentially miss out on necessary evaluations. Similarly, sending them to an urgent care facility, though a valid option in some situations, may not guarantee continuity of care or alignment with institutional protocols. The option of resting in the Academy cafeteria does not address the medical needs of the cadet and lacks the appropriate medical oversight. Therefore, directing self-sponsored cadets to Student Health Services or an approved medical provider is the most suitable and safe choice.
