Medical Evacuation or MEDEVAC is timely and efficient movement and en route care provided by medical personnel to:
Wounded being evacuated from the scene of an accident / tragedy to receiving medical facilities, or
Patients from a basic hospital requiring urgent care to a better-equipped hospital, using medically equipped aircraft (air ambulances)
Combat encounters, accidents, natural disasters, acts of terror, etc. are just a few examples which need immediate MEDEVAC
A patient's chances of survival are greatest during the ‘golden hour’
