Behind every flight is a patient and a team committed to delivering lifesaving care. We are deeply thankful to our crew, first responders, hospital and community partners, and the communities we serve for your continued support and collaboration.

Thank you to Parrish Medical Center for inviting us to last night's Gift of Light celebration! It was a beautiful and meaningful way for our community to welcome the season. 🎄

We're grateful for our partnership with Parrish Healthcare, built on a shared commitment to compassionate, high-quality care. With First Flight serving as Parrish's preferred air ambulance in North Brevard, families have faster access to the nearest hospital, improving outcomes in critical moments.

We're proud to stand side-by-side in service to our neighbors and look forward to continuing this important work - together.

Santa’s sleigh got an upgrade this year! 🎅🚁
After soaring in aboard First Flight, he personally thanked the crew for the smooth ride from the North Pole. The jolly elf then swung by the Trauma Team to remind them to stay on the nice list this year.

After decades of teaching music and inspiring children, Loretta Fox faced a sudden stroke in her backyard.

Thanks to an alert neighbor, Brevard County Fire Rescue, and the stroke team at Holmes Regional Medical Center, she made a full recovery. Last week, she returned to personally thank the physicians, nurses, and first responders who helped her.

Loretta’s story is a powerful reminder: time is brain. 🧠
Recognizing stroke symptoms quickly and calling 911 can save lives. Remember B.E. F.A.S.T.: Balance issues, Eye problems, Face drooping, Arm weakness, Speech difficulty, and Time to call 911.
