MY LIFE IN THE MEDEVAC CRISIS MANAGEMENT TEAM



It's about time to say that I am very proud to be part of Airgurus Ltd. Co. the pioneers and leaders in air medical transport (Medevac / Medivac - Medical Evacuation) in the Philippines, Southeast Asia and Asia Pacific as the company continues to be the largest and safest provider of air transport services and medical assistance. Woot! Woot!







It's only been four (4) months since I joined the company and handled its' Marketing department (their first LOL ... online and offline) and now, I can say with great pride that we have become the largest provider of air ambulances (fixed wing and rotor) in the Philippines. Airgurus Ltd. Co. has earned a reputation of high safety standards and professionalism both nationally and internationally. Not a day goes by that we haven't been confidently and efficiently evacuating the seriously injured or sick patients from even the remotest of areas.... even far out international shores especially starting last month!

 
Many calls us for patients requiring specialized care, urgent surgeries needing to be transferred to hospitals with adequate facilities for their condition. Time plays an important factor for Airgurus' Medical Evacuation Crew thus; we provide rapid, professional care and transferring of these patients. Many at times already that I see ourselves in the team fully-dedicated to providing flawless professional air ambulance transport of patients to and from anywhere in the Philippines, outside international shores and other continents.



Airgurus Ltd. Co., uses the most appropriate means of transfer according to the locations, weather conditions and condition of the patient. Transfer is made possible either by our fleet of airplanes and helicopters. Critical care aircraft are all outfitted as flying intensive care units with all lifesaving equipment and medication. Our AeroMed flight medical staff are all highly trained to handle the most critical of patients whether they are on life support, have myocardial infarction or multi-trauma etc., providing dedicated critical care in the skies. Our service ensures continuity of quality care to all our patients.



For the past two (2) months, our clientele has expanded internationally. Our full time aero medical teams have started to provide coordinated "bedside-to-bedside" transfer worldwide. I found the team available to respond quickly to emergencies that within minutes of a call, all the necessary arrangements for that service is coordinated to the appropriate medical team, specialists, highly-skilled pilots while taking into consideration... the patient's best interest. Yes... the medical teams are chosen carefully based on the needs of each patient. 



It makes me happy and proud of my company and of the team when patients, their families, companies and other various organizations entrusts us to safely transport their loved ones, friends, clients, employees, etc. The praises through calls and e-mails have been overwhelming. The medevac crisis team management handles basic life support, advanced life support, critical care nationwide and now, critical care on international flights




At Airgurus Ltd. Co., I must say now that all of us has hidden wings... yes, I have grown wings too! Not all Filipinos know about medical evacuations / air ambulance's importance and benefits. Aside from assisting on medical emergency calls, it is my primary duty for the company and as a concerned citizen that I spread my own wings to let people know that all of us at Airgurus Ltd. Co. are angels... in our continuing quest for being the lifeline in the skies!

HELICOPTER RESCUE OF TWO PINOYS IN SOUTH CHINA SEA

January 31, 2011... a 3:15pm distress call from an oil tanker Ghawar Nassau to Airgurus Ltd. Co., the leading Air Ambulance Company in the Philippines, was received. 






The China-bound tanker's captain requested for the immediate airlift / medical evacuation of two (2) critically injured Filipinos. These men figured in an accident on board (one broken hip and one broken leg) and are requiring to be brought to the Metropolitan Hospital in Manila for immediate medical attention.









An hour before that distress call to Airgurus Ltd. Co., the ship's captain previously called the Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) pnly to be advised that PCG can only pick the men up in 2 - 3 days. The good captain of the ship was so concerned about these Filipinos' conditions thus; he sought for help from the shipping company in Manila to contact anyone who could get these men some help fast as they head back closer to the Philippines.






 
The call was made to Capt. Harry Lero of Airgurus Ltd. Co. who, understanding the urgency of the call, immediately called for SkyAid's doctor and Aeromed medical staff to go with him to South China Sea and have 2 ground ambulances be on a standby at the hangar when they arrived. 








SkyAid is an air ambulance program by Airgurus Ltd. Co. and Aeromed providing access to medical air transport in the country.  




Airgurus Ltd. Co. with its' partnership with Aeromed... SkyAid is the best air ambulance solution if ever you're in a medical emergency or figured accident far away from adequate medical care anywhere in the Philippines.
