  • "No Shift Is Routine"
    Take 45 minutes from your day to listen to this powerful testimony from DavePaul Lane.... a paramedic who became a patient himself, and was almost lost his life, when he treated his shift and equipment as "routine". This broadcast was recorded at the 2015 Tri-State Fire/EMS Conference in Portsmouth, OH, on March 28th. No one left the conference without being effected by his story. DavePaul has turned a tragic day into a learning experience for us all, and focuses on impacting firefighters, EMS, and other public safety workers & healthcare professionals by reminding them that shift complacency and the "this is just another routine shift" mindset can be deadly. This is a great episode for your entire department or team to listen to, and we urge you to take time to listen to his story in its entirety. DavePaul Lane is available for questions and comments by emailing him at [email protected]. We thank him for allowing MedFlight Radio to share his story with our listeners.

  • Pre Flight - Not just for Aviation

    In this episode we discuss an article published in the winter 2015 Edition of Vertical 911 magazine. The authors (Iain Holmes and Debra Milliner) discuss the importance of a thorough pre flight. This article is the first of a series aimed at those looking to make a move into helicopter emergency medical services. However, this information has an application in any public safety discipline.

    Please check out this video which gives the viewer a glimpse of the Commlab at the Helicopter Flight Training Center. This training facility is one of its kind and provides an unprecedented training experience. You can find out more about the Helicopter Flight Training Center in this interview with Terry Palmer.
