REGINA, SK - Earlier this week, HazAir's rotary medevac service was dispatched to an incident in southern Saskatchewan. The helicopter, which was positioned in Weyburn to respond to the call, was made available within thirty minutes of the call to dispatch.
"I am very pleased with the response to this incident from our medical and air crews" said Scott Rodonets, HazAir's Director of Aviation Logistics.
While the HazAir response was part of an unguaranteed non-contracted service, the need for a dedicated standby rotary solution in the booming southern quadrant of Saskatchewan has become apparent.
HazAir has been working with its clients in the area for the past six months to establish a dedicated air service to supplement the existing standby ground medical service provided by Haztech Fire and Safety Services.
"Through this incident we were able to witness firsthand the value of an immediately available medically equipped rotary solution to service this region. We will continue to work with our clients with the goal of establishing a program that delivers this essential layer of safety" said Rodonets.
