Happy Critical Care Transport Nurses Day!
Today we honor our LFE Flight Nurses — delivering ICU-level care in the air and on the ground when every second counts.
For 30 years, they’ve served our patients and community with expertise, precision, and compassion.
Thank you!

Because first responders and healthcare providers face unique stress and trauma themselves, EMS, law enforcement, nurses, and doctors are all at higher risk of mental health struggles. Reminder: Take care of your colleagues and yourself.

It's back to school season. A new season of "learning" so what would YOU like to learn about LifeFlight Eagle on Why Fridays? Crew training? The science of flying? The medical equipment?

During critical phases of flight like takeoff, landing, or operating in inclement weather, the concept of the “sterile cockpit” is utilized. This means that all non-essential conversations are avoided other than conversations focused on the task at hand.

An overloaded or poorly fitted backpack can lead to back, neck, or shoulder strain — especially for younger students. Help keep kids safe by ensuring backpacks are worn properly (both straps!) and weigh less than 10–15% of their body weight.

Why is it critical for first responders to protect themselves from extreme heat?
Because taking care of others starts with taking care of yourself!

From Memorial Day to Labor Day, hospitals and EMS crews see a sharp rise in trauma cases. Warmer weather means more outdoor activity, travel, and risky behavior.
*American Trauma Society, trauma cases increase by up to 25% during summer months.
