SERVICES

International Medical & Rescue provides three levels of emergency medical transport for regional and international flights.

PRIVATE MEDICALLY EQUIPPED AIRCRAFT:

This service is utilized most often. International Medical & Rescue will arrange a complete bed-to-bed service; including ground transportation, medical staff, medical equipment and aircraft, which is configured as a mini intensive care unit to handle BLS, ALS and Critical Care patients, for each flight.

Medical teams consisting of Paramedics, Doctors and Respiratory Therapists are available. All aero medical staffing is customized to the clients and patient’s particular needs. International Medical & Rescue is committed to coordinating safe air medical transports for patients and air medical crewmembers.

MEDICAL ESCORT:

When the medical necessity and cost of a private air ambulance isn’t necessary and the patient is ambulatory IMR can provide the assistance of a “medical escort.” IMR aero medical crew will consult with the patient and client Physician(s) then evaluate his/her medical condition as it relates to air travel and advise on the best method of transport.

COMMERCIAL STRETCHER ON INTERNATIONAL CARRIERS::

This service is for clients and patients not in need of critical care measures and requires blocking out rows of seats to allow a FAA approved stretcher to be placed on the commercial airline. A curtained area would become the patients “room”, we make all of the needed arrangements and use our aero-medical staff and equipment.
