Show I Life Flight increases on the scene flights In July LDS hospital'! Life Flight smbulancehelicopter program rescued a record number of severely Injured Intermountain area residents from parts of the region inaccessible by land or too distant for ground ambulances to reach in time to be effective. Flight Operations Director Mary J. Lloyd, R.N., says almost half of Life Flight's 88 patient airlifts last month were from Utah mines, oil fields, lakes, deserts, mountains and freeways. She says requests for Life Flight have increased as law enforcement departments, industrial safety managers, park rangers and emergency medical system agencies recognize the value of quick response medical rescues at the scene. The airborne intensive care unit regularly forms a relay with ground ambulances enroute to Salt Lake City to intercept patients to speed the journey. Life Flight personnel have also teamed with the Hill Air Force Base and Dugway rescue crews. Proving Ground Since the Life Flight program began at LDS hospital two years ago this July, there have been 786 adult and child patients carried on 766 flights. Because patient preferences and physician referral patterns are respected, only half of the patients transported are actually admitted to LDS hospital. The remainder have been taken to more than 20 other hospitals in Utah and surrounding states. Flights average 80 miles each r and the mileage total is two-yea- approximately 62,000. Designed for high altitude flying, Life Flight can carry two patients, two medical attendants, a pilot and 300 pounds of emergency medical equipment at speeds up to 120 miles per hour. LDS hospital shares a fixed-win- g airplace with other area hospitals to reach patients beyond Life Flight's e span around Salt Lake City. As part of the hospitals comprehensive medical air transport service, the MU-- 2 craft travels up to 750 miles nearly liX) times annually.
