ed in March of ‘46. A staff sergeant,

sion searching for prisoners of war

Air Life of Oregon will be “ in ser­
vice” on March 17. Therefore,
should the service be needed, the
Heppner visit may have to be
cancelled or interrupted.
Air Life of Oregon began service
to Central and Eastern Oregon in
August of 1985. Since that time Air
Life has flown over 1100 patients;
about half of the patients are
transported between hospitals; with
the other half being helicopter
response to accident scefles.
Air Life provides air ambulance
tran sp o rt service with both
helicopter and airplane. Both aircraft
are dedicated to aeromedical use and
are licensed as advanced life support
air ambulances. Airline transport
certified pilots and registered nurses
with advanced training in trauma,
heart and perinatal care (for mothers
and babies) are available 24 hours
every day.
The Air Life membership plan,
available to residents and visitors to
Air Life’s service area, costs $40 per
year for individuals or all members
of an immediate family.
Vem Bartley, program manager
of Air Life, said the membership
plan offers several benefits. ‘‘When
an Air Life member becomes an Air
Life patient due to a critical illness
or injury, Air Life bills their in­
surance company for payment and
accepts that payment as payment in
full. The member s deductible is
paid in full by their Air Life
membership.”
There are now over 7000 Air Life
members. Their investment in Air
Lite has made it possible for us to
“ balance our budget," according tc
Bartley, “ as well as make service
improvements such as the Bell 222
UT helicopter which was brought on
line in December 1989. This new
helicopter can accommodate two pa­
tients and three medical caregivers,
and, because of its twin-engine
capability can reach the distant ser­
vice area of Central and Eastern
Oregon more quickly.”
Individuals or businesses with
questions about Air Life service or
m em bership
can
call
1-800-522-2828 during business
hours.
