FLIGHT COORDINATORS
History has proven that open and frequent communication with one person managing your transport improves safety and minimizes error and that is why your team starts with a highly trained Flight Coordinator. Each coordinator has a background in critical care medicine and is extremely knowledgeable, resourceful, and experienced in coordinating complex commercial airline medical transports.
