When being present in the country of the other Party: 8.1. the ambulance crew ensures that the quality of service is in accordance with the requirements and the rules of its state of origin. The ambulance crew is held liable for the service provided, in a manner that is consistent with the national laws and regulations of its state of origin. 8.2. the ambulance crew ensures that the service provided is documented as is the case when the respective service is provided in its country of origin. At the end of the provision of the service (i.e. the transportation of the patient to the hospital, handing the patient over to the ambulance crew of the patient's country of origin, leaving the patient's home for out-patient treatment, or any other outcome of the service) the ambulance crew is also required to hand over a copy of the document either to the hospital or the ambulance crew of the other Party or to the person in need. Ambulance crews prepare all the documentation using the template of the referral specially designed for the enforcement of this Agreement. Each Party is to make a translation of their national templates into English and ensures that they are at the disposal of the ambulance crews that could be involved in the provision of cross-border emergency health care with regard to this Agreement.
