Find Out More About Air Ambulance Edmonton

By Donna Jackson


The form of transport patients who require special medical attention use are air planes and helicopters also known as air ambulances. With air ambulance Edmonton, these planes are equipped with everything that is required to save the lives of patients who are in urgent need of special attention. There are also people, who are highly trained to make sure that the patients get first aid and other special attention in case the patients are accidents victims, they use blood drips, breathing equipment and so on to make sure they have better life care.

The services provided are efficient since they have more merits as compared to the same services provided on the road. One of the merit is they are faster as compared to road; when using road, congestion is always there hence making the level of survival of the patients low. There is always a siren mounted in the ambulance which makes a sound that makes other vehicles pave way to them but there are always arrogant drivers who do not give way for the ambulances to pass through.

Access to remote areas where no vehicle can reach is an added merit of using air services. This is commonly used when taking injured armed forces to hospitals where they get treated, these soldiers are mostly on missions to keep peace in their country. The rate of which lives are saved is high since reaching on the required destination on time is achieved.

When air is used the rate of which people with casualties and require immediate medical attention would survive is high as compared to road. Medical complications caused on the way as the victims get transported to health facilities are low. Reason behind it is speed of which the patients get to receive the very much needed special medical care.

Everything that has an advantage has a disadvantage. An air ambulance service has its own disadvantages which are equally high like the demerits. The demerits include crashing, lacking adequate trained people to give pre-hospital care and equipment.

Looking at these advantages and disadvantages in a greater depth will make us have a good clarity. Lives are claimed when there are cases of plane crash, all the crew on board lose their lives including the pilot, patients and the medical experts who gave intensive care to these patients during the journey to the hospital. We lose several people when trying to save others.

Specialists who attend to the victims are also not adequate, when these people are not enough there is difficulty in saving lives since enough special attendance is not given to the victims. This goes hand in hand with inadequate equipment which support life when the patients are being transported to different hospitals. These equipment include; life support machines, blood drips, oxygen gas cylinders and so on.

In the long run embracing of this medical service is required since the merits are more than the demerits. Though land services are more than the air services, the air services can do everything at a good speed which can save lives. Let us accept the fact that there are more merits than any other services as rated.
