A Flight Paramedic provides advanced medical care to patients during air transport. You might work on air ambulances or helicopters, responding to emergencies and transporting critically ill or injured patients. Flight Paramedics administer medications, perform medical procedures, and monitor patient conditions while in-flight. You'll collaborate closely with flight crews and hospital staff to ensure safe and effective patient care throughout the journey.
Flight Paramedics play a crucial role in emergency medical services. You’ll need to be highly skilled in emergency care and able to work efficiently under pressure. Excellent communication and teamwork skills are essential as you coordinate with other medical professionals and ensure patient safety in a high-stress environment.
