When Is a Medevac Service Necessary to or from San Francisco, CA?
Scheduling a medevac service to or from San Francisco, California, is much different than scheduling a standard medical transportation flight. Medevac flights are often reserved for severely ill or injured patients who need to be transported as soon as possible to the correct medical facility. In some cases, Air Ambulance Worldwide can provide this type of transportation with as little as two hours’ notice.
One common reason for medevac flights is a serious accident while on vacation. If you are traveling in a different country, and you suffer a terrible injury, you may need an emergency medical flight to transport you to the appropriate medical facility in the United States. Another reason for a medevac flight is if an ill patient becomes increasingly sicker and needs to travel home to see their own doctors immediately while on vacation. In this instance, the patient may have a team of specialists in the San Francisco area, so the flight would need to land at the appropriate airport in this region.
Regardless of why you need a medevac flight, you can rest assured that our pilots and medical team will make sure your travel is safe. We offer “bed to bed” service, which means we will stay by your side from the moment we pick you up to the minute we get you set up at your new medical facility. Throughout your medevac flight, you will be under the care of some of the most experienced medical professionals in this field. At Air Ambulance, we require every member of our medical team to have at least five years of ICU or CCU experience, though many have neonatal and pediatric expertise as well. We also require our pilots to have thousands of logged flight hours and a spotless safety record, so you can rest easy knowing our medevac service will get you where you need to go safely.
