The hours before an air ambulance arrives can feel long. A short checklist helps you stay organised.

Documents

  • Patient ID and insurance details
  • Medical summary and reports
  • List of current medicines and allergies
  • Doctor's contact details

Patient comfort

Follow the treating doctor's instructions on medication and positioning. Keep the patient calm and warm.

Contacts

Keep your phone charged and share a single reachable number with the air ambulance team.

Ground transfer

Confirm which gate or helipad the ambulance will use and keep the route clear.

Staying calm and organised

Appoint one family member as the main contact, keep a charger and power bank nearby and keep a printed copy of key documents. A calm, organised family helps the medical crew work quickly.

Key takeaway: Stay calm, stay reachable and keep documents together. We will handle the flight.

Frequently asked questions

Should the patient eat or drink before the flight?

Follow the treating doctor's instructions. Some patients need to remain nil by mouth.

Can I travel with the patient?

Often one or two companions may travel, subject to aircraft space and medical advice.
