Air Ambulance Service in the Philippines - For medical emergencies you may depend on Air Ambulance Service from abroad

Air Ambulance Service in the Philippines - Possibly you may have to arrange an Air Ambulance Service insurance in your home country to have airlift available when needed.

There are no known and commonly available Air Ambulance Service here - but you may find airlift by regular air taxi or you have to call an overseas air ambulance for international airlift. To be prepared for medical emergencies that call for evacuation by air - be prepared and get all information and financing arranged before having to use such often expensive emergency transportations.

For loving people there is no need for Air Ambulance Service and in the Philippines all are loving and smiling ...

but if ever you need a fast flight to Manila or any other major city for medical reasons or a medical emergency - then it would be good to have the phone number of a private air taxi ready at hand. air taxi are rare here - but more likely available than Air Ambulance Services in the Philippine island.

One possible source to get an airlift would be one of the 2 Cherokee - either the Cherokee 4 or Cherokee 6 - however you should know that a normal small airplane made for airlifts / air taxi of passengers has no means of lying a patient flat or having him on a stretcher. Hence a patient needing such kind of airlift would need to be able to walk into the small airplane and sit normally in his seat.

As a long time ex-diving professional - one of the key rules was to always be prepared and have an emergency plan ready. That would mean to study available transport media such as ambulances, airlift possibilities as well as available hospitals for medical emergencies.

If medical emergencies are part of your life-plan, then you may have to do your local research now. Foreigners - specially Europeans - often have the opportunity to subscribe to an emergency and accident insurance for a rather nominal fee that normally includes Air Ambulance Services such as airlift up to a certain total amount back to your home country. Such professional Air Ambulance Services are suitable for transportation in case of medical emergencies due to a diving accident - decompression sickness - or any other medical emergencies as they normally do have a pressurized cabin that allows for full comfort of patients with breathing difficulties or cardiac conditions. These normal small ambulance jet airplanes also to have full medical personal on board and all normal medical emergency equipment while the locally available small private airplanes in the Philippines are in no way equipped as medical air planes but as tourist airplanes or air taxi such as the Cherokee 4 and 6 I used repeatedly for my aerial photo sessions. The air transport service I used - Flyandrelax is a tourist air transportation or air taxi service and NO medical ambulance service - but flyandrelax might be suitable if you need to gat faster to a place by air than you would get by road or sea.

Love and bliss
