PROGRAM: Thanks to Chad Bowdre from Classic Air Medical, for a very interesting program. Classic Air Medical provides air medical transport unique to the needs of rural emergency care and in our case, a mountain location. Chad educated us about the scope of services of Classic Air Medical and emphasized the rigorous standards required with both the equipment (helicopters, planes, on-board medical device) and the staffing of all aspects of this critical service. May none of us ever need their service, but if we do, we can be reassured that we would receive the highest quality of care! For more information on Classic Air Medical: www.classicairmedical.com

He even volunteered without being asked and did a great job!
