Critical Care Transport

Global Air Rescue arranges 24-hour worldwide service with fully coordinated bedside-to-bedside transport. Medical staff members consult with patient's physician and assemble the appropriate medical team and equipment. All flights may carry some or all of the state of the art equipment including oxygen, suction, infusion pumps, respiratory, and intubation equipment, volume ventilator, pulse oximeter, cardiac monitor and defibrillator and cardiac drugs. We coordinate every aspect of transport, including ground transportation and the provision of records to the receiving health care facility. Global Air Rescue provides 24-hour worldwide service with fully coordinated bedside-to-bedside transport. The medical transport team is generally composed of a critical care nurse and a highly skilled paramedic. In specific cases a respirator therapist, pediatric specialist and/or physician may be added to the transport team.

International Commercial Stretcher

Commercial stretcher service may offer a cost-effective solution to international private aircraft transfers. The patient's eligibility will be determined by the Airlines' Medical Director and their own private physician. Patients are accompanied by ICU/CCU aero-medically trained personnel specializing in critical care transport as well as all necessary emergency medical equipment determined by medical personnel which may include: defibrillators, oxygen and saturation monitors, cardiac monitors and emergency medication.
