The BSA Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Transport Team and Apollo MedFlight announced a new helicopter for neonatal transporters across the region.
BSA and Apollo said the Apollo MedFlight Bell 407, looks to give the BSA NICU team “more flexibility in time-critical situations allowing for hospital-to-hospital transport.”
“Since 2018, Apollo MedFlight has partnered with BSA to provide fixed-wing air medical transport for babies born prematurely across the region who require specialized care,” said Brandon Leasure, Apollo’s Chief Commercial Officer. “With the addition of the Bell 407 rotor wing, we now have two aircraft available for neonatal transport, both equipped like an ICU/CCU with advanced medical technology you would find in a hospital.”
BSA and Apollo said in a joint news release that during transport both the Bell 407 rotor-wing and the King Air 90 fixed-wing include a specially trained team with access to access to equipment such as ventilators, monitors, IV pumps and isolettes.
