Nearly two-thirds of the United States population is overweight. As obesity rates increase around the country, fire departments and emergency medical workers need new ambulance equipment to handle overweight patients.The department’s gurneys could not adequately support the patients’ weight, and the department had to pay a private ambulance company.“We had to do something,” Acting Chief Tim McGinley said. “It was one of those things where we would try to use the equipment we had and were afraid that you were going to end up hurting somebody, the patients themselves or the staff.” According to the director of emergency medical service in Durham. D.C., several paramedics had strained their backs and injured their shoulders transporting patients on inadequate equipment. What they

Medical patients requiring transportation over a range of 500 miles or more wouldn’t dream of traveling by ambulance.

For this reason, patients requiring air [...]

Folks! Do you know that United States of America has air ambulance services in all of their 50 states?Well, I know that they have a few since we have seen them on our television channels before but I didn’t know that they have at least one in every state. I got to know this today after stumbling upon AirAmbulance Dot Net. It seems that AirAmbulance Dot Net is some kind of a hub of information for Americans to find air ambulance services and I’m glad to say that I learned a few new things from this site today.Do you even know what air ambulance service is all about?Let’s just say that those involved in air ambulance services are experts in medical flight.

Hey everyone,Atleast I didnt know what it is and that such a service exists. Since I know now, I must share it with everyone. Air ambulance services can help save life of many patients who need medical care in emergency.If any patient needs to be evacuated due to an earthquake or any situation, they would require advanced air ambulance services not just limited to aeromedical, but critical care ground transportation as well. This is where services like these comes into play.These services have ambulance crew and critical care medical team that include paramedics and nurses who have medical flight training. With flight nurses and flight paramedics that are sometimes also respiratory therapists and flight surgeons, certified air medical examiners sometimes work with the medical transport cre
Sometimes flying isn't that much fun. Like, if you have to fly on a business trip when you would much rather be spending time with your family. Or, of course, when you're flying 'back' from a great holiday to a job you hate.But the worst time to fly must be when you are flying for medical reasons.If you are in hospital and you need to be transferred to a different hospital, the flight must be at the bottom of the list for fun trips. On the plus side, you won't have any children on the flight kicking the back of your seat, but dude, you're ill.But while it's not fun, it is the most important flight of your life. So you want to get it right.I didn't even know they had sites like this, but have a look at www.airambulance.net where you can find information about air ambulance services. Th

The autonomous flying ambulance, nicknamed the Mule, is a creation of Rafi Yoeli, who used to work for Boeing and Israeli Aerospace Industries. He later founded his own company, Urban Aeronautics, in Yavne, Israel.
The Mule is the smaller version of another Urban Aeronautics product, the X-Hawk. The former vehicle has been designed for the purpose of carrying injured military personnel (hence the name ‘flying ambulance’) out of combat areas, while the latter is aimed for urban and personal use.
Several of Yoeli’s patented inventions are integrated into the Mule, including his VTOL (vertical take-off and landing) vehicle technology and the hybrid drive-powered lift platform. Both the Mule and the X-Hawk, for instance, are classified as VTOL vehicles.

I need help and I need it FAST. An air ambulance. Perhaps a Leer jet? Medical rescue for Hortense, a charter flight to lift her spirits and her bodily form. Ahhhhh! I’ll use one of the Internets. Surely there’s a fast way, a quick search, which will give me all the information I need.
On a whim and a prayer, I typed in airambulance.net. Damned if Firefox didn’t pull up all the information I needed! Even an 800 number to arrange the flight. Thanks AirAmbulance. I’ll meet you at the airport in just a few scant minutes. The paramedics are loading Hortense into the back of the rescue unit as I type. Thank the Internets gods for a one-stop information center like the air ambulance website. I saved so much time by not having to skip all over creation looking for medical transport faqs and the handy dispatch info. Sounds like a responsible, trustworthy company to me.
“I am coming, Hortense! We’ll get to you Chicago in no time! Hold fast, dearie!&rdquo
When an injury requires emergency attention an air ambulance can be more effective than a land ambulance. Frequently I see land ambulances trying to rush through many cars which adds on to the time it will take for the ambulance to arrive to rescue those in need. Sometimes I think to myself while riding on the interstate If someone were to get into an accident, it would be a whole hour before someone comes to the rescue. An air ambulance can definitely save lives a bit faster than a land ambulance would.
Calgary paramedics are now driving the first ambulance in Canada specifically designed for fat patients.The ambulance can accommodate people weighing up to 1,000 pounds, so obese patients don't have to be reluctant about calling for medical help, said Grant Theirren, the superintendent of special operations for Emergency Medical Services."We encourage everybody to call 911 regardless of their weight and situation," he said. "We have the tools to make things easier, to keep patient dignity, and offer them the professional service that every other patient has exposure to."The upgrades to the ambulance include a specially designed air mattress that is inflated beneath the patient, making transfer to a widened stretcher easier and safer. A remote lift system then gently raises the stretcher into the ambulance.Paul Lapointe, a public education officer with EMS, said the ambulance, refitted at a cost of $30,000, should cut down injuries among paramedics transferring obese patients.Your "get

Things have gotten so bad at Merck that they are renting ambulances for victims of the company's Vioxx drug and MRK sharesholders.
Merck disclosed yesterday that it was in a dispute over $5.58 billion in taxes it may owe the US and Canada.
Almost any child who reads a newspaper knows that Merck's Vioxx painkiller may cause heart problems and that the company is involved in countless suits that could cost it billions of dollars in damages. And now the taxman cometh.
Merck has $6.2 billion in cash on its balance sheet, so, if it had to pay these taxes, it would not have a great deal left to cover Vioxx judgments, although future earnings could generate more cash.
It is hard to figure out how the tax number could get so high. Merck's revenues are about $22 billion, so it is a pretty big bill.
Merck's shares have recovered from the Vioxx shock. Its stock has recovered from a 52-week low of $27.99 to $45.90, near its high for the period. In 2003, the stock traded at $63.

The book is Blood, Sweat and Tea: real-life stories from the London Ambulance Service, based on Tom's blog about his experiences as a London ambulance tech. Link (Thanks, Tom!)
