We recently visited the Maryland State Police Aviation Command. Operating a fleet of 10 Leonardo AW139s, the Maryland
State Police Aviation Command flies medevac and
search-and-rescue missions - on top of its law enforcement
function - to help the protect citizens of the Mid-Atlantic state. We had the opportunity to sit down with pilots and troopers from the command to learn more about their missions, including the launch of their whole blood program back in May 2023.

Spent 31 years as a flight nurse/medic. Met these folks many times over the years. Very squared away, professional organization. Stay safe

If my memory is still good, I recalled that the MD Aviation unit has a history of the first police helicopter to arrest someone on the ground. One helicopter flew, landed around a suspect in the field, the pilot or co-pilot jumped out of the chopter and arrested the suspect.

I proclaim today #NationalPrayerDay in Maryland. Marylanders cherish our heritage of religious freedom and the power of prayer to strengthen bonds of understanding, tolerance, friendship, and unity among all people.

I've worked with MSPAC Trooper 5 many times and they're pretty cool. Where I am in WV, it's quicker to have them fly in than the state's Healthnet helicopters

Since government operated, are medical services free of cost to the patient?

@kennybaker7821 8 месяцев назад

Not at all not in NJ at least it’s $10-$50,000

@moseslevin503 8 месяцев назад

Yes, Maryland charges a nominal surcharge on drivers license renewal to cover the cost of this wonderful world class service.

@Dr_Duck69 8 месяцев назад

The helicopter flight it self is free to the patient, any medical aspects they preform they have to pay for.

@@kennybaker7821in NJ the Jemstar/NJSP Medevac helicopters are free of charge. Hospital Medevacs cost the patient money

“ Off the ground in 10 minutes.” While they are on standby ?? Unless I’m missing something, I’d hope they would be able to get off the ground quicker than that

@Dr_Duck69 8 месяцев назад

So how it works is, from the fire ground to our dispatch center, to SYSCOM, the helicopter gets a pre-alert, SYSCOM does checks of, hospitals, closest helicopter, weather, flight conditions and much more. So 10 minutes is very quick.
