Neonatal and Infant Air Transport

Conducting air neonatal transports for transporting a newborn out of a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) requires thorough collaboration between all parties involved. AirCARE1 is the preferred air ambulance provider to conduct air neonatal transports for these delicate patients by hospitals, insurance companies and healthcare providers as AirCARE1 is well known for our specialized air neonatal transport team and trusted medical care.

To successfully conduct a neonatal air transport, it requires a highly skilled and focused medical team utilizing specialized neonate equipment. AirCARE1 provides the most comprehensive bedside to bedside newborn care in our airborne neonate intensive care units. We utilize a fleet of Learjet aircraft to safely transport neonates at lifesaving speeds from domestic and International destinations worldwide. AirCARE1 also provides transport for family members and encourage a parent to accompany their newborn during the flight at no additional cost.

AirCARE1 provides a complete neonatal service that provides comfort and peace of mind. Our team stands ready and able to comfortably transport the smallest and most fragile of patients in an environment equivalent to a level 3 hospital neonatal intensive care unit.

AirCARE1 has a specialized neonate team that consists of neonate nurse practitioners, nurses, respiratory therapists, and paramedics. This team is experienced and trained in the newest technologies and neonatal resuscitation interventions. Each team member has extensive neonatal and transport backgrounds.

Our neonate team goes bedside at the sending facility to prepare the neonate for the safest transport. The neonate is carefully assessed, and any necessary interventions needed to stabilize the patient are made before transporting. Once the newborn is ready to transport, it is carefully placed into one of our specially designed neonate units that provides a warm, safe, and quiet environment for transport.

The tiny patient remains in our neonate units for the entirety of the transport. Our highly skilled team medically manages the patient utilizing our AirCARE1 monitoring equipment as well as a specialty ventilator, if needed, to deliver lifesaving oxygen. The medical team continuously monitors the neonate’s core temperature, oxygenation, heart rate and blood pressure and will quickly make important life-saving interventions when warranted.

Once the neonate reaches their destination, the medical team accompanies the neonate bedside to their final destination where an extensive report will be given to the receiving facility’s medical team.

An Airborne Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) provides the safest and most efficient way to transport a newborn experiencing complications from the transferring facility to a facility offering additional care options.

It is for that reason all newborn intensive care units on our Learjet aircraft are equipped with advanced medical technology identical to what is found in the hospital neonatal units, as well as qualified neonatal trained personnel experienced in utilizing these lifesaving technologies.

Our airborne neonatal intensive care units are equipped with either a Neonate Isollete or a Baby Pod that safely regulates the temperature of the newborn. The newborn is continuously monitored inside these devices with a highly sophisticated and advanced monitoring system. If needed, the newborn will receive life- saving oxygenation through our technologically advanced ventilator. Combined, this creates a sophisticated neonatal patient care system that transports the newborn in a safe and warm environment to their destination.

Our fleet of Learjet aircraft is specially designed to accommodate neonatal patients and a family member with utmost comfort and safety. Each Learjet is owned and operated by AirCARE1 to ensure the neonatal patient is transported in a well maintained and safe medical environment. The result is an unparalleled air ambulance service with a perfect safety record and a reputation for excellence in patient care.

AirCARE1 utilizes the most sophisticated flight environment, fully equipped as a Medical Level 3 Neonatal Airborne Intensive Care Unit. Our specialized medical transport system includes an Isollete or Baby Pod, neonate ventilator, Propaq monitor and Syringe Pumps, all combined to create a neonatal patient care system that transports the patient safely and compassionately to their destination hospital.

Our Learjet aircraft are the best transport option and will fly your special tiny patient and a family member, faster, safer, smoother, and more comfortably than any other aircraft.
