This Thanksgiving, we give thanks for the opportunity to serve. We’re grateful for the trust our communities place in us every day. From our flight crews to dispatchers and support staff, we’re honored to stand ready 24/7, 365 days a year. 🦃

Today, and every day, we also give thanks to our partners in EMS, fire, law enforcement, and hospital systems across the state. It’s a privilege to work alongside such dedicated professionals. 🍁

We wish everyone a safe, healthy, and happy Thanksgiving. And to those on shift today, thank you for answering the call. 🧡

Today, we pause to honor the courage, sacrifice, and unwavering commitment of all veterans who have served in our nation’s armed forces.

We are especially proud to recognize and thank our veteran teammates, individuals who continue to serve with purpose and dedication in a different uniform. Your discipline, leadership, and heart for service strengthen our mission every day.

Vanderbilt University Medical Center is deeply saddened to confirm that a Vanderbilt LifeFlight helicopter was involved in an accident this afternoon in Wilson County, TN. Three crew members were on board. Tragically, one crew member lost their life, and two others are in critical condition and receiving care at Vanderbilt University Hospital. No patient was on board at the time of the incident.

Our hearts and deepest sympathies are with our Vanderbilt LifeFlight colleagues, their families, and loved ones during this difficult time.
