EagleMed - celebrating 30 years of service

EagleMed 1, a fixed wing aircraft and EagleMed 11, a rotor wing aircraft, are both proudly based in Wichita, KS serving the local communities that we live in. These two teams run an average of 60 plus flights per month. Our medical crew is capable of operating in either type of aircraft. Our pilots are very skilled and experienced. They provide check airmen duties, train and evaluate new pilots for the company.

EagleMed 1 is the first air ambulance to be operated by Ballard Aviation. Our fixed wing aircraft is staffed by senior employees, participating in specialty transports of obstetrical and neonatal patients, in addition to emergent transport of the critically ill and injured. We frequently transport to Ann Arbor, MI, Houston, TX, as well as bring patients from rural Kansas into Wichita.

EagleMed 11 is the first rotor wing aircraft to be operated by Ballard Aviation. Also staffed by experienced nurses and paramedics; we serve the local area and counties as far away as 100 miles. Primarily transporting critically ill and injured persons into the Wichita Hospitals.

A ground ambulance based in Wichita is available to take patients from airports to the hospitals. This ambulance can and has been activated to respond to and assist in local disasters.

Being based at corporate headquarters, the Wichita team has the opportunity to assist the education department in teaching other nurses and paramedics continuing education.
