Flight nursing is a specialized field of nursing that involves providing medical care to patients during air transport. Flight nurses work on helicopters or fixed-wing aircraft, often responding to emergencies or transferring patients between medical facilities. They are trained to handle critical situations and provide advanced life support while in transit. These nurses collaborate closely with paramedics, emergency medical technicians (EMTs), and physicians to ensure patients receive the best possible care. Flight nurses must possess strong clinical skills, knowledge of aviation medicine, and the ability to work in high-pressure environments, making them essential members of air medical teams.
