Air Ambulances Save Lives

I have sat thinking about how much has changed in recent history with regard to medical science. Many accidents and illnesses that a few generations ago meant certain death are not even that much of a concern anymore.

I have marvelled at the incredible advances in transportation technology that has taken place over the last few generations. Sometimes I wish that we had Star Trek style transporters, but safe commuter jets are still pretty neat.

You know I think about what computer technology communications technology have done to change our world.

A website and an air ambulance company like AirAmbulance.net brings all these advances to bear on the job of saving lives. Scenarios like air lifting a downed US Marshall from a Texas ranch to an expert surgeon in a hospital in California, or rushing a donated heart from an accident victim in Arizona to a transplant recipient in New York...these are the kind of things that can be done. With regards to accidents, whether they are traffic related, or industrial, getting to a hospital as quickly as possible may be vital to the victims survival.

The website AirAmbulance.net serves as an invaluable information hub for air ambulance services in the USA. They operate a dispatch center in Miami and they have been in this vital business since 1984 without incident. Hospitals, government departments, nursing homes and others use them to charter bith domestic and international flights with qualified emergency medical staff and state of the art equipment on board.
