Air ambulance service is an advanced medical service which uses air transportation such as airplanes and helicopters. It is the most effective and vital mode of transportation in case of a medical emergency at the hospital, accident site, or at home. It helps to shift critical patients to hospitals and takes less time to travel. It includes trained medical staff  equipped with medical treatment facilities used in emergencies and provide immediate medical care. It is effective in serving people in war-torn areas and those affected by natural disasters.

Moreover, air ambulances have trained medical professionals onboard to treat patients in emergency situations en route to the hospital. Air ambulance efficiently addresses the issue of long travel time and difficulty in reaching to remote areas faced in road ambulance service. Thus, air ambulance services have become an essential component of the modern healthcare system.
