Aditya Mohan’s parents question Jet Air

Following the death of their baby on board a Jet Air flight, Krishnamoorthy and Sujata Mohan question Jet Airways and the Aviation Authorities on seven issues related to their tragic experience.

ยท Issue 4: Cabin Crew training for emergencies: I realize that cabin crew are not trained para-medics,and cannot be expected to do much beyond administering basic first-aid. When we realized that Aditya was not responding and we took him to the Crew station, the gentleman (I forget his name) tried putting oxygen mask on Aditya, after which he realized that the mask was not connected to the green oxygen tank. Minutes were lost in this while Sujatha and I along with the other cabin crew stood frozen and shocked. I cannot take the image of the shocked, young air crew struggling with Aditya from my mind. The air crew continued to struggle till a fellow passenger/Doctor was paged but I think we may have lost a lot of time by then.

I also recall the passenger-Doctor looking at the medical bag and asking the Crew if there was a certain injection in the bag. I forget the name of the injection but I recall the crew saying that they did not have it.

o The Cabin Crew should be trained better in administering first-response, including administering oxygen during real emergencies. What is Jet Airways going to do to improve?
o Why did the medical kit not contain the injection that the Doctor requested?

They urge you to join their online petition asking Jet Airways to probe the incident and ensure that no other parent goes through the same trauma.
