Magpas Air Ambulance is an Emergency Medical Charity that brings life-saving pre-hospital care by land and air to patients in life-threatening emergencies in the East of England and beyond. The charity is based in Cambridgeshire and is activated to emergency medical incidents, using either the air ambulance or rapid response vehicle, across 9 other counties – Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire, Essex, Norfolk, Suffolk, Lincolnshire, Northamptonshire, Leicestershire, and London.
It trains, equips and deploys a physician-paramedic team to any medical emergency, illness or accident where the NHS Ambulance Service asks for crucial on-scene medical support.
Some of the UK’s expert doctors and paramedics volunteer their own time to work with Magpas Air Ambulance. They support the ambulance service and give advanced medical care when time is of the essence.
The Magpas Air Ambulance medical team receives enhanced training which allows them to offer procedures and treatments at the scene, like general anaesthetics, which are usually only available in a hospital. This means that the frontline care the team delivers doesn’t just save lives, it helps seriously ill and injured people return to a good quality of life. Magpas Air Ambulance is not a state-funded service and relies on generous public donations to continue saving lives.
