Welcome to Ireland Air Ambulance
Ireland Air
Ambulance will be the 17th Air Ambulance Service operating in the UK
and Ireland and will be funded in the same way as the most of the other
Air Ambulance services in this region - by Charitable Donations and
Corporate Funding. There is no service of this kind in Ireland. But
that is about to change... with your help!!
Operating 365 days
a year, aircraft works within the 'Golden Hour' which will offer the
capability to cover the following areas: Antrim, Armagh, Belfast.
Cavan, Donegal, Down , Dublin, Fermanagh, Galway, L'Derry, Leitrim,
Louth, Longford, Meath, Monaghan, Roscommon, Sligo, Tyrone, Westmeath,
and not forgetting Rathlin Island and the Isle Of Man.
From
a 999 call this fully equipped Helicopter Emergency Medical Service
[HEMS] Air Ambulance will be tasked, airborne and en route in under 3
minutes with a fully trained Trauma Doctor and Trauma Paramedic on
board. Their expertise will allow them to also determine which is the
best hospital to deal with that particular type of injury at that time
- whether it is a head, spinal, limb or other. The Air Ambulance pilots
will do the rest!
The
money raised will enable us to secure an aircraft and crew and keep us
flying. Your continued support will be helping to save lives.
