Devon Air Ambulance

Devon Air Ambulance Trust is the charity that raises the funds to keep Devon’s two air ambulances flying. In March 2020 we introduced two rapid response, Critical Care Cars to our fleet of emergency vehicles.

Accidents and illness happen and when they do patients, whatever their age, circumstance or location, need specialist treatment fast. The speed with which our air ambulance doctors and paramedics can reach a patient, identify their time-critical needs and provide their specialist life-saving treatments and interventions to slow, halt or even reverse the effects of a life-threatening condition, is crucial in helping to achieve a successful outcome.
