Today, we're celebrating the unsung heroes who keep us mission-ready and safe – our aviation maintenance technicians (AMTs). They're a humble group who work behind the scenes, but their impact is felt on every mission. From routine maintenance to critical repairs, our AMTs ensure that when the call comes in, our aircraft are ready to respond. Their skill, dedication, and attention to detail make all the difference.

Please help us give a big shout-out to our favorite AMT, Danny! His attention to detail is unmatched and we are so lucky to have him as part of our crew ❤️ 🛠️🚁

We are so lucky to work with such great local EMS partners! Hope to see everyone at our annual BBQ THIS Thursday!

This EMS Week, we honor the incredible EMS professionals who are essential partners in our mission to deliver lifesaving care. From the moment you arrive on scene to the seamless handoff that ensures continuity of care, your expertise, professionalism, and dedication make all the difference. You are the first to respond, the first to assess, and the first to provide hope in the most critical moments. Thank you for trusting us to continue the care you begin and for working alongside us to serve our communities. Together, we're improving outcomes and saving lives. We couldn't do what we do without you.
