MEDICAL FLIGHTS
We provide fully equipped medical flights with experienced medical personnel on board, to ensure a safe and gentle journey home. To provide optimum care for patients, our air ambulances are fitted with permanently installed intensive care equipment. If required, additional equipment can be installed. This flexibility guarantees a fast, safe journey with the shortest possible waiting time at any time, day or night.
Our ambulance air crafts
carry the following medical equipment:
Intensive care unit with vacuum mattress and patient loading system
Central oxygen tank (6,000 litres) and optional reserve tank
Multi-parameter intensive care transport monitor
Compact defibrillator/monitor system
Intensive care respirator
Portable blood gas analyzer
Satellite telephone.
This is just a selection of the medical equipment on board, but we can source extra equipment, depending on the patient’s medical condition, to ensure their safety and well-being.
In our medical flights, we are able to safely medevac patients, even those who require intensive medical care. Patients who are travelling with us receive excellent care and arrive at their destination as quickly as possible. Highly experienced, specialist intensive care physicians accompany patients during their medical repatriation: in the event of a medical emergency, they can intervene immediately.
It is even possible to adjust cabin pressure in our air ambulance to the air pressure on the ground, providing a so-called ‘sea level flight’, which is necessary when transporting patients with certain medical conditions.
We also provide ambulance transfers from hospital to airport and, after the air ambulance flight, to your chosen hospital.
Our comprehensive bed-to-bed service is ideal for seriously ill patients: it helps to minimize waiting times for patients and families, and ensures the best possible care during the journey.
