The highest number of life-saving callouts last year was for cardiac arrests, twice that than for road traffic incidents. All made possible thanks to supporters of the Air Ambulance
Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance provided life-saving intervention, showcasing advanced medical capabilities in 17,500+ missions and 12,000 flights
Use of the RAF Chinook helicopters - each able to carry up to two ventilated patients - will play an important role in helping to bring increased support to patients on the Isle of Wight
15 years on from the first flight on 1st July 2007, air ambulance crews attend around four emergency missions every day and are able to provide advanced life-saving care usually found in a hospital emergency department
