Understanding the need for Air Ambulances
An air ambulance is often seen just as a means of transport for a critical patient. We are here to tell you, that it is in fact much more than that. Our aeromedicine is an extremely specialised field. The stability and in-transit care of the patient is of utmost importance without which, transferring the patient could lead to further deterioration in their condition. Before you opt for any Air Ambulance Service, it is imperative that you understand if your loved one requires the service and how it will impact their well-being.
