How you can support us…
We are always blown away by the generosity of our community and this one is especially close to our hearts.
A massive thank you to Dot who has sent these beanies for our most precious patients, the tiny premature and newborn babies.
It`s hard to see in this picture but they are very small to keep their little heads warm.
The crew keep a couple on the helicopter at all times to ensure that these little ones are kept cosy as they travel.

Can you find a life saved? Do you know all the ways weโve invested in your rescue helicopter service?
Putting together a rescue helicopter mission is like piecing together a puzzle โ every piece is vital. You are also a vital part of that puzzle. Itโs through the support of our community that we can ensure the rescue helicopters across Canterbury and the West Coast are mission-ready.

We`re still buzzing from last week`s official unveiling of the West Coast`s first H145 Westpac Rescue Helicopter. But our commitment to the Coast continues.
Work is currently underway to expand IFR routes across the West Coast and to invest in weather stations across multiple West Coast sites โ developments that will drastically improve the reliability of the rescue helicopter service.
So, please, keep your support coming - with you, our community, by our side we`ll keep working to support and futureโproof the rescue helicopter service so it can protect those who live, work, and play on the West Coast for generations to come.
In the meantime - enjoy this little look at the transition from the BK117 to the H145 thanks to Critical Care Paramedic Rod. It`s a game-changer.

As soon as the phone rings, the crew all know their place โ what they have to do to get in the air, and to the patient, as quickly as possible.
Putting together a mission is like piecing together a puzzle โ and every piece is vital.

For daytime jobs, crews have 10 minutes to get in the air. At night, itโs 20 minutes.
