Highlights for Airmedic :
-
Development of a new repatriation service
We have expanded our range of services to include international medical repatriation options. Whether accompanied on a commercial flight, or via an air ambulance, we provide safe and efficient international transport. This new offer reflects our commitment to bringing emergency care beyond borders. These initiatives are among the highlights for Airmedic, as they illustrate our commitment to continuously improving our services.

Reinforcing our aircraft fleet
The integration of the Learjet 45XR into our fleet has strengthened our ability to respond rapidly to complex medical needs, both internationally and in Quebec’s far north, thanks to its range of 3,300 km, its cruising speed of 860 km/h and its ability to operate on short and varied runways. Ideal for long-distance evacuations, it serves key destinations such as France, Florida, Brazil, Mexico, Cuba, Morocco, Thailand, Norway and Western Canada, reflecting our commitment to rapid, quality interventions.
-
National and international recognition
Our efforts have been recognized through several prestigious awards. Media such as the International Travel & Health Journal have highlighted our technological innovations and outstanding services. These distinctions, both local and international, reinforce Airmedic’s position as a leader in the field of medical transportation.

Introducing EZResus technology
Airmedic becomes the first Quebec company specializing in aeromedical care to use the EZResus application. This technology optimizes our emergency interventions, with recommendations on drug dosages, equipment requirements and continuous patient monitoring.

Presence at the Montreal Formula 1 Grand Prix
For another year, Airmedic provided air medical coverage for the Montreal Formula 1 Grand Prix, underlining once again the importance of these services for large-scale events.
