Medical evacuations, often referred to as medevacs, are processes used to transport patients from one location to another for medical treatment. This can occur in emergencies, such as natural disasters or military operations, where immediate medical care is needed. Evacuations can involve various modes of transport, including helicopters, ambulances, or airplanes, depending on the situation and urgency. During a medical evacuation, trained personnel, such as paramedics or flight nurses, accompany the patient to provide necessary care en route. The goal is to ensure that individuals receive timely medical attention, minimizing the risk of complications and improving their chances of recovery.
