Medical Evacuation

Medical evacuation, often abbreviated as medevac, is the process of transporting individuals who are injured or critically ill to a medical facility for urgent care. This can involve various modes of transport, such as ambulances, helicopters, or airplanes, depending on the emergency's nature and location. Medevac is crucial in scenarios like natural disasters, military operations, or remote areas where immediate medical assistance is needed. The goal is to provide timely treatment and improve the chances of recovery by quickly getting patients to hospitals with the necessary resources and specialists.
