Happy Certified Nurses Day! Certified nurses go the extra mile by furthering their education in their specialty. All of our nurses here at 117 have pursued advanced certifications in flight nursing, critical care, trauma, and emergency nursing. These advanced certifications allow them to be more prepared to serve our community when it matters most. We are so proud of them and all they do to be better each and every shift!

Help me give a LOUD shoutout to one of our very best, Brittany Blocker! Brittany earned a new set of flight wings last night with her 100 patient flight! Brittany is such an asset to our base and we are so blessed to have her and her knowledge she shares with us! The community is blessed to have her flying in the skies!

We love getting pictures of our team out and about. This picture was taken yesterday by one of our friends at Piedmont Walton.

Thank you Piedmont Walton ER for the call! (And the awesome shot of Cinnamon)

After a rainy and cloudy week, we're thankful for some sunshine in the forecast ☀️ Cinnamon and our crews were fortunate to attend Walton County's annual "Shop with a Hero" event yesterday at the Monroe Walmart. Our crews also attended the week prior, but weather didn’t allow us to fly in.

Thank you to Walton County Fire, EMS, Sheriff’s Office and 911 Dispatch for coordinating and securing an LZ.
