Outreach
»ΚΉΪΆΔΗς Life Flight offers free education and training opportunities to our EMS, fire and hospital colleagues. As part of this commitment, we can provide our helicopter for certain training and outreach events with the goal of maximizing safety in scene operations and helicopter utilization. The helicopter is typically flown out in conjunction with our Helicopter Landing Zone Management and Safety Course, as well as some other »ΚΉΪΆΔΗς Life Flight educational offerings.
Due to the volume of requests we receive, we typically don't do fly-ins into schools, but each request will be reviewed. We cannot provide aircraft for non-health care agency functions, but a representative from »ΚΉΪΆΔΗς Life Flight may be able to speak at events such as career days or business meetings.
