The Fire and Emergency Medical Services of Wisconsin and northern Illinois are critical to Med Flight's ability to provide quick, quality air transport. Their expert assessment and response provides a vital link to increasing a patient's chances to survive and thrive.
We're proud to be partners in emergency critical care and transport with fire and EMS departments and providers in our region. We work alongside these responders to improve the quality and timeliness of care for patients. Med Flight is committed to the continual training and education of fire and EMS personnel across Wisconsin. We offer a range of services to our emergency medical partners.
