I never knew there was such a thing as air ambulance service when I was young. It never crossed my mind that such a service would be necessary. After all, I figured you went to the hospital and stayed until you got well -- or until you died.

And then family tragedy hit. My grandfather developed cancer, and it needed to be treated much more aggressively than it could in the town where he lived – but how do you transport a frail old man 300 miles?

And that is where an air ambulance service entered the picture. My uncle hooked up with a company that provided this critical medical transportation service. They got him from his hospital bed in a rural hospital to the local airport, and from there to a business airport just a few miles from the new hospital -- and then checked in. Total time from bed to bed? Only a little over four hours. They brought him home some months late, after the doctors declared further treatment futile – treating him with great dignity on what was to be one of his last days.

I hope you never need domestic or international air ambulance service. But if you do, consider AeroCare Air Ambulance Service, with its 24 hour service for emergency and non-emergency situations.
