๐Ÿš AE 173 Base Meeting + Survival Training! ๐Ÿš

Another day at AE 173 spent learning, training, and making sure weโ€™re ready for whatever comes our way! ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿผ๐Ÿšจ

Todayโ€™s base meeting included some survival trainingโ€”because when you work in the world of flight medicine, you have to be prepared for more than just the patient care! ๐Ÿš

We train hard, learn together, and keep each other sharp because when the call comes, thereโ€™s no room for โ€œI didnโ€™t know.โ€

All great gatherings should have some yummy food to enjoy and we did just that! we had lotsa good food including Tracyโ€™s smash burgers and cupcakes for Joeyโ€™s birthday!

Proud of this AE 173 crew and the dedication they bring to the job every single day! โค๏ธ๐Ÿ’™

Train. Prepare. Respond. Repeat. ๐Ÿš๐Ÿ”ฅ

What a great day! Thanks Sammy and Amanda for letting us train at the farm and hosting the crew.

๐Ÿฅตโ˜€๏ธ KENTUCKY, ITโ€™S HOT OUT THERE! โ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿฅต

A Heat Advisory is in effect across portions of Kentucky today, with heat index values expected to climb into the 100s. Some areas are facing even more dangerous heat.

๐Ÿšฐ Hydrate BEFORE you get thirsty.
๐ŸŒณ Take frequent breaks in the shade or A/C.
๐Ÿ‘ต Check on your elderly friends, family & neighbors.
๐Ÿ‘ถ Keep an extra eye on kids.
๐Ÿถ Donโ€™t forget the pets!

Our new Flight Nurses, Loren Haydon and Audrey Clark, completed their mock flight training/simulations.

Our crew also had the opportunity to meet with the team at Jim Beam in Boston to discuss landing zone planning and explore opportunities for future education and training at their facility. Building these relationships ahead of time helps ensure weโ€™re prepared when our services are needed.

From training and education to community partnerships and celebrating milestones, itโ€™s been a great week for AEL 173. Weโ€™re thankful for everyone who continues to collaborate with and support our crew!

Great things happen when we train together, prepare together, and work together. ๐Ÿš
