A 3-man team of Lifeline helicopter lifesavers introduced BCFD to its new $7 million air ambulance Tuesday afternoon.
 
The flight team included Andras Erdelyi, pilot, Timothy Short, registered nurse, and Jarrod Sights, paramedic. The group is stationed at Methodist Hospital in Indianapolis.
 
The team collectively passed along information to the fire department to ensure patient and firefighter safety at emergency scenes.
 
Additionally, the air team detailed safety hazards they often encounter while approaching accident scenes. Some of the dangers were identified as power lines, tall poles, nearby buildings, soft ground the craft could sink into and obstacles that could pierce the aircraft’s body.
Another concern is fast-changing weather conditions that limit visibility and storms with high winds.
 
The Clarian Health-owned helicopter would rather be called to an emergency scene shortly after the incident occurs rather than delay the response.
 
The request could could always be canceled.
