Med Evac Helicopter: Essential Service For Rural Areas

I took Susan to rehab at the Hamilton Memorial Hospital and got to see a helicopter come in to move a patient. The Air Evac Lifeteam landed on the helispot and soon had a patient loaded and transported to another hospital. These helicopters and crews save lives every day. Our house at Belle Prairie is on the flight path between Mt. Vernon, IL and Deaconess Hospital in Evansville, and they run any hour, day or night, when there is an emergency. They rattle the windows and we know someone is getting help.

My niece’s husband is a medical pilot in South Dakota.

The helicopter out of Mt. Vernon rattled our windows at midnight, while I was out in the dog yard with the Schips. Good People!

⁠The now 2 Aircraft in Mt Vernon, IL are a close to the top for busiest bases in the company. Such a good culture that is necessary in the air medical industry and an amazing group of human beings ❤
