When our crews land at hospitals across the region, safety depends on more than just the flight team.

A special thank you to our partners in security who help keep landing areas safe and secure so our crews can focus on caring for patients. Your support, communication, and quick action play an important role in every safe landing and every patient transport.

We appreciate all you do to help protect our crews, patients, hospital teams, and communities.

Thank you to Aurora Medical Center – Fond du Lac and everyone involved for their collaboration and commitment to safe, effective patient care.
