Upon landing, the patient, family and air medical air ambulance crew are transferred to the waiting ground ambulance to be escorted to the receiving facility.
In addition to standard medications, the air ambulances flights team is authorized by our Medical Director prior to transport to administer current ongoing medications for patients. Non-standard medications are typically supplied by the sending facility, the patient's family, or the patient himself depending on the level of transport. During International transports, we understand and accept that patients might receive medications that are not routinely used, nor are FDA approved, in the United States. Our policy prohibits the administration of illegal drugs.
Since we are a 24 hour air medical flight operation, we can respond immediately to your request. It typically takes about 90 minutes to call out a crew and have them prepare the aircraft for takeoff. From that point, we fly directly to the airport closest to the patient. We will keep in constant communication with you during this time so that you will know our arrival time precisely.
Since we are a 24 hour life flight transport plane operation, we can respond immediately to your request. It typically takes about 90 minutes to call out a crew and have them prepare the aircraft for takeoff.
The professional manner that you had was coupled with a warm concern that we both felt. Your Sky Flight European businesses helped put the nightmare behind us. And, despite the cold and the snow we are both very relieved to be home.
For inter-facility transports under two hundred miles, plane carriers is not always cost effective. In addition, some non-critical patients prefer the cost savings of longer distance ground transport. In these instances, Emergency Air Ambulance will transport the patient comfortably, providing skilled medical care, at a cost significantly below that of air transportation.
There is a Pilot and a Co-Pilot on all our patient escort directory. On the props, there is just one Pilot, typically, but a second pilot can be added at your request.
Emergency Air Ambulance operates a fleet of Gulfstream, Learjet, King Air turboprops, and Cessna twin engine aircraft. As a result, we can offer our customers a range of options to meet their patient transportation air ambulances needs.
