›› Welcome to Aeromedical International

Aeromedical International is a medical rescue, escort service specialising in the emergency repatriation of seriously ill or injured patients using air ambulances or commercial aircraft.

Not all patients need an air ambulance, and considerable savings can be made, even if the patient requires oxygen or a stretcher, using scheduled airplane flights for rescue, instead of air ambulances - except where very extensive life support is required. Aeromedical International specialises in this, and we have helped many - insurance or privately funded - minimise the substantial costs which can be involved in this kind of emergency, particularly where an air ambulance would otherwise be required.

Patients on a stretcher, needing oxygen, or even some life support, can often be safely moved by commercial airplane with an escorting doctor or nurse, and repatriation itself can avoid huge bills. We have the expertise to make the necessary assessment in liaison with the local medical practitioner. Insurance companies have also used our services to confirm that proposed treatments by the foreign staff are medically correct and reasonably priced. We have achieved substantial savings for both individuals and insurance companies.

An aircraft or air-ambulance is a unique physiological environment. Medical conditions can change at thirty thousand feet, and experience is necessary. Aeromedical emergency rescue escort staff are all fully trained to handle the situations that may arise on the aeroplane or air-ambulance. Transporting stretcher bound patients, particularly those with particular life support needs, on aircraft or air ambulances is highly specialised, and the nurse or doctor handling the repatriation and escort needs to be fully capable of dealing with anything that may arise on the aeroplane or the air ambulance.

It is not just the airplane or air-ambulance that presents logistical problems. They also arise on the ground. It is not an easy matter to cope on an aeroplane with a patient, perhaps needing oxygen or life support, and deal with the bureaucratic and official obstacles that can and do come about where aircraft are involved. We are used to this, and any doctor or nurse of ours is highly experienced in dealing with this as well.
