A flight medic, is a paramedic (EMT-P), that functions in an aeromedical environment. Typically the flight medic will work with a registered nurse, physician, another paramedic, or other allied health professional like a Respiratory Therapist. The flight paramedic is usually highly trained and has years of clinical experience in a high acuity environment. Flight paramedics usually are either also qualified as FP-C (certified flight paramedic) or CCEMTP (critical care emergency medical transport program) as well. Most hold certificates as instructors in either Basic Life Support, Advanced Cardiac Life Support, or Pediatric Advanced Life Support.
