Because Louisiana’s diverse geography of rich swamps, bayous, marsh lands and vast rural areas make quick response by ground ambulances a difficult task, Acadian Ambulance expanded in 1981 to launch Air Med. In addition to faster response times in rural areas, Air Med also allowed Acadian Ambulance to quickly reach emergencies offshore.
Today, Air Med flies more first-response missions than any other air medical service in the United States.
As Acadian Companies employee-owners, we see every opportunity to make a difference. Our mission of “Knowing life matters” guides our actions as we treat more than just the injury or ailment, but the person as a whole.
Air Med Services’ commitment to safety, innovation and use of new technology will help deliver the highest level of services and care while ensuring at the end of the day, our customer’s expectations are exceeded and all of the Air Med team goes home safe.
Today, the program maintains an extensive fleet of medically configured EC-135 and EC-145 helicopter ambulances strategically stationed for departures throughout our Louisiana and Texas service areas.
In addition to our rotary-wing aircraft, Air Med also uses medically configured turboprop and jet aircraft for local, regional, and international transport.
Acadian Air Med began in 1981 as the first aero-medical provider in the Gulf of Mexico. Today, Air Med is a national leader in air ambulance medical transports, flying more first response missions than any other air medical program in the country.
All FAA Part 135 aviation services are provided by Metro Aviation, Inc., which maintains exclusive operational control over all aircraft.
