Ride Alongs

Title: Message

We at Native Air continue to have our ride along program.  We allow any physician, resident, nurse,  pre-hospital staff or news media to ride along with us.  On special occasions we allow others to ride as well. Although the jury may be out as to whether or not call volume is increased as a result, the relationships we build with hospital staff is excellent.  It's truly a different world out on the streets (as you all know), and I think the ride alongs certainly help hospital staff to see the difference in a flight crews work space, and the work space they are accustomed to in the hospitals.
