LifeLine is Indiana's first critical care transport system in the state, commencing air medical transport operations in 1979 from Methodist Hospital Indianapolis. Since that time, LifeLine has flown more than 30,000 accident-free patient transports. LifeLine is a combined program, providing comprehensive services to all age groups. The Adult LifeLine crews consist of a Pilot, Flight Nurse, and Flight Paramedic. The Neonatal/Pediatric Crews are based out of Indianapolis, and Lafayette and consist of a Registered Nurse, Registered Respiratory Therapist (RRT), and/or Neonatal Nurse Practitioner and focus on critically ill children and newborns. Additionally all medical crew members are required to maintain certifications pertinent to their scope of practice (CFRN, FP-C, CCRN, RRT-NPS). LifeLine helicopters fly throughout the State of Indiana. Fixed-wing transport utilizing dedicated, medically configured aircraft is available for critically ill patients who are farther away from Indianapolis. LifeLine's fleet consists of one MBB/Kawasaki BK 117 and five Eurocopter EC 145 twin-engine helicopters with an average cruise speed of 150 miles per hour. LifeLine also operates three Neonatal/Pediatric ground transport units and each outlying base (Lafayette, Terre Haute, Columbus, and Richmond) operates a ground adult critical care transport unit for when the weather is inclement and meteorlogical conditions do not permit air medical transport. LifeLine provides comprehensive critical care medical transport service access across Indiana and portions of Illinois, Kentucky, Michigan and Ohio with bases located at: * Purdue University Airport, Lafayette, IN (N192LL) * Hulman Field, Terre Haute, IN (N197LL) * Richmond, IN Airport, Richmond, IN (N193LL) * Indianapolis Downtown Heliport, Indianapolis, IN (N191LL) * (Columbus Regional Hospital ), Columbus, IN (N198LL) (Clarian Health's Webpage Highlighting Lifeline ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「LifeLine (medical transport)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
