New Client KSS HELIMED
We would like to welcome Kent Surrey Sussex Air Ambulance HELIMED 21 and 60 this month as a new client. Photographer Tim Wallace recently spent some time with the pilots, paramedics and doctors of KSS to capture the day to day lives of these amazing crews that work tirelessly to provide rapid response emergency medical care with their Leonardo AW169 helicopters and rapid response vehicles.
HELIMED 21 and 60 KSS
Kent Surrey Sussex Air Ambulance has been saving lives and providing cutting-edge, pre-hospital critical care for the last 34 years and covers a massive 7,390 km2 area in the south of England. The KSS fleet consists of helicopters and Rapid Response Vehicles that transport their doctors and paramedics to patients 24/7, 365 days a year, that brings the emergency room to the scene to deliver life-saving critical care.
At the scene, they provide an advanced level of treatment and have the ability to transfer patients rapidly to a hospital where they can be given the best available care for their condition.
Their current fleet consists of three state of the art Leonardo AW169 helicopters and when circumstances prevent them from flying, their rapid response road vehicles mean they can still provide specialist life-saving care by road through their four Rapid Response Vehicles (RRVs).
Air Ambulance Kent Surrey Sussex has attended 40,000 incidents since its inception in 1989. They are committed to providing the highest quality of care to their patients and ensuring our life-saving service is available to as many people as possible, regardless of the time of day.
