AIR AMBULANCE · RHJ AVIATION
Medical transfers.
Carefully coordinated.
Air ambulance enquiries require careful coordination around the patient’s condition, clinical team, equipment, route and receiving facility. Share the details so the appropriate medical and aviation providers can assess the mission.
Discuss a Medical FlightMedical Flight Coordination
Every transfer begins with the patient’s needs.
Medical suitability and flight arrangements must be assessed for each patient by qualified medical professionals and the proposed operating provider.
Crew & Equipment
Discuss the level of medical escort, monitoring, oxygen, stretcher or other equipment that may be required. Final configuration is subject to clinical and operator approval.
Hospital-to-Hospital Logistics
Consider departure and receiving facilities, ground ambulance transfers, medical handovers, permissions and timing across the full journey.
Why Choose RHJ Aviation
Coordination that keeps the patient at the centre.
Medical transfers call for careful communication between clinical teams, hospitals, ground providers and aviation operators. Each case is assessed individually.
Start with clinical needs
The patient’s condition, mobility and care requirements shape the transfer plan. Clinical decisions and fitness-to-fly assessments remain with qualified medical professionals.
Right crew and equipment
Medical escort level, monitoring, oxygen, stretcher and other equipment must be assessed against the patient’s needs and approved aircraft configuration.
Air and ground considered
We help identify the key transfer points, including departure hospital, airport, receiving airport, ground ambulance and receiving facility coordination.
Operational suitability
Aircraft capability, crew availability, route, permits, airport facilities and weather are reviewed by the relevant operating providers before confirmation.
Understand each next step
We aim to make the enquiry process clear by identifying the information required, who needs to review it and which approvals are still outstanding.
Care with sensitive information
Medical details are sensitive. We encourage sharing records only through an appropriate secure channel with authorised clinical and service providers.
RHJ Aviation does not provide medical diagnosis or treatment. Patient suitability, medical staffing, equipment and transfer decisions must be confirmed by qualified clinicians and the operating providers. This website is not an emergency response channel.

Air Ambulance FAQs
Important questions.
What information is needed to assess a medical flight?
The medical team may need details such as the patient’s current condition, mobility, weight, oxygen or monitoring needs, infection-control considerations, treating clinician contact and receiving hospital acceptance. Share sensitive medical information only through an appropriate secure channel.
Can a family member accompany the patient?
This depends on aircraft configuration, patient care requirements, available payload, medical team needs and operator approval. The proposed provider must confirm whether an accompanying person can be accommodated.
How quickly can an air ambulance be arranged?
Timing depends on clinical clearance, aircraft and crew availability, hospital acceptance, permits, weather and ground transport. No departure time should be treated as confirmed until all required parties approve the plan.
Is this enquiry form for medical emergencies?
No. This website is not an emergency response service and is not monitored as an emergency channel. If a patient needs immediate medical attention, contact local emergency services and the treating hospital directly.
