500 Questions

What aircraft is used by the air ambulance service?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Jet-wise, LeerJets are the most popular among air ambulances. Although the LeerJet has long stopped production and was replaced by the BeechJet, Leer's have a larger passenger door allowing enough room for the onboard gurneys to be removed without taking the patient off the cot. Beech and newer aircraft have all sacrificed that door opening to get enough room to allow more rooms for seating. For propeller aircraft, the most popular for medevac crews and maintenance staff both are the KingAirs. I don't know the specific model numbers off the top of my head - I work in the back of them, not the front.

How long should you wait to call an ambulance if somebody is having a fit?

If this person does not normally have seizures, then it is always appropriate to call an ambulance immediately. Some people with epilepsy or similar diseases can experience regular seizures that cause them no harm and are just inconvenient. Even these people can be subject to unusual seizure activity. If a person does not come out of a seizure after a few minutes, the situation is an emergency. If they seize once, start to wake up, then seize again, this is an emergency. If they start to turn blue, it is an emergency. If in doubt, call for the ambulance.

im assuming that you mean the livery on vehicles. I cant find a specific date but i know that the livery was done this way because vehicle drivers may not be able to read the word when an ambulance is behind them. Because of this, they may worry that it might be a police vehicle.

Asked by Wiki User

Ambulance services: are medical transportation services that are often called upon to move ailing individuals from one location to another. The most common relevance of this type of service is to respond to an emergency situation, such as an auto accident or the sudden collapse of an individual, quickly moving the ill or injured party to a care facility where he or she can receive treatment. However, the typical ambulance service provides other services as well.
