New critical care trolley for air ambulances during National Air Ambulance Week

Yorkshire Air Ambulance

We’ve launched a new Critical Care Transfer Trolley, specially adapted for use on aircraft including helicopters. Which is quite a co-incidence as this week is National Air Ambulance Week!
The CCT Trolley is adapted to carry all the life-supporting equipment necessary for safely transporting both pre- and post-operative heart patients as well as patients recovered from a life threatening accident by an air ambulance. The new trolley was designed and is manufactured at our Cleckheaton headquarters.
The trolley includes the latest technology to enable clinicians and paramedics to constantly monitor a patient’s condition, helping to ensure these vulnerable patients get the best possible care when they need it most.
It also enables ambulance and air ambulance crews to transfer patients quickly and easily with no need to disconnect vital life-supporting equipment, significantly reducing the risk of complications.
Nothing like this has been developed before and our research and development team at Cleckheaton has invested a lot of time and effort to deliver a product that specifically meets the needs of the air ambulance service which is a very exacting brief.
With the launch of our new CCT Trolley air ambulance paramedics and doctors now have access to all the life support systems most clinicians would associate with a hospital operating theatre or critical care ward. This means that more lives will be saved.
We works with several air ambulance services, NHS Ambulance Trusts and several private ambulance companies and we have a particularly close relationship with the Yorkshire Air Ambulance for which we have raised thousands of pounds.
