There are ample reasons why a need for medical repatriation may arise. Because time is an important element in medical services, many critical patients would need a quick transfer to the hospital for survival. If the voyage is pre-planned, opting for a scheduled flight is an economical alternative. The patient will be accompanied by qualified medical paramedics such as Doctors, nurses, etc. if the need arises, their intervention can be instrumental. At AeroMed, we provide various options for medical repatriation such as commercial flight or air ambulance. All of our services are designed for keeping in mind the well being and safety of the patients.
Repatriation accompanied by a medical escort
The patient will be accompanied by a team of specialized doctors and professionals inside the flight. Our charters and air ambulances are well equipped with advanced life support equipment such as Ventilators, oxygen tanks, Infection protection sets, Machines for measuring blood pressure, body temperature, etc which allows the doctors to act appropriately as per the situation. Though in the case of commercial flights, medical repatriation is generally carried out in business class, it is also available in economy class. For patients who are mobile but not very strong, traveling accompanied by medical professionals is safer than traveling alone.
