About Air Ambulance Services: Transport of the sick and injured patient from one location to another in order to receive specialized medical care is not a new concept. Transporting patient in a safe and efficient manner is considered a requirement in providing foremost medical care.
Transport can occur by ground or air ambulance. Air transport is appropriate when the distances between the patient’s origination point and destination are too great to be safely transported in a timely manner by ground ambulance. A fixed-wing air ambulance is the only transport able to transport patients over great distances.
Fixed Wing: The advantage of fixed wing air transport is the ability to travel long distances:
- at great speed;
- in a pressurized cabin aircraft equipped with sophisticated on-board medical equipment;
- accompanied by highly specialized medical personnel.
The aircraft utilized in such aero-medical transport is usually an aircraft dedicated for aero-medical use and with all-weather navigational equipment capable of transporting not only the patient, but allowing for at least one family member to accompany the patient.
