• HEMS system on the uk server is unrealistic my idea is: HEMS should need training (Maybe the CC training) The max staff should be 3 rather then 1 so you can have the pilot, the doctor and the paramedic all fly on the chopper rather then just a chopper pilot.

    You can train HEMS crew in Critical Care already and if your talking about having more than 1 than IRL most HEMS crews run with 1 or 2 Critical Care people anyway as the pilot's role is to fly, land and help when it comes to the anything to do with the Helicopter. Any other personal are there to treat such as a Doctor or Critical Care Paramedic with the latter assisting the pilot in navigation. Having Multiple Crew trained in individual things such as pilot etc is just making things overcomplicated for such a simple unit.

  • HEMS needs to increase max staff per unit.


    Also the ratio it is requested needs edited as just now if I have it on most calls need it which is a pain.


    Also to make it realistic to UK it needs to be allowed to cover all ambulance jobs units own with no need for a land crew. This is because in some areas of the UK the helicopter is often the first or only response that can get to the scene.


    Also make it so you can use them for Hospital transfers (clinic to hospital) you actually could add a whole new dimension to that side of things as all over the UK critical care transfers are done almost on a daily basis.

  • I agree with all of these ideas!

  • I keep asking for the maximum crew to be raised to 5 and the minimum to 3. In regard to allowing HEMS to be not reliant on a ground crew. I massively agree with this however the devs are standing firm on this and are refusing based on how HEMS works in Germany. Whilst I’d love to keep pushing it, I don’t want it to get in the way of other features etc

  • I use CC trained HEMS as my Air Ambulance Units

    Non CC trained HEMS as my CG SAR Helicopter Units as they have paramedic winchies but not to CC level mostly.


    gives me the option of CC and HEMS despatch or just HEMS
