If you have driven by WakeMed Raleigh Campus lately, you may have noticed that there are two WakeMed Air Mobile air ambulances striped exactly the same.
No, you are not seeing double. Earlier this month, Omniflight, the company that owns and operates our helicopter, provided WakeMed with a back-up at no cost to us.
This additional aircraft will ensure our ability to transport critically-ill patients 24-7-365 without interruption, and allow us to respond to more transport calls for critically-ill patients suffering from heart attack, stroke, general medical and trauma conditions, or those who need to be transported from other facilities for a higher level of care.
