A Helicopter Emergency Medical Service (HEMS) has been introduced to improve trauma care in the Southeast of England. The majority of the workload comes from the area bounded by the M25 ring road. In 1989 a Dauphin 365N helicopter equipped for pre-hospital primary rescue and emergency inter-hospital secondary transfer was certified by the Civil Aviation Authority. The helicopter commenced carrying patients with a paramedic and a doctor on board early in 1990. In September 1990 this service was further improved by the opening of a helipad at the Royal London Hospital and a designated HEMS desk at London Ambulance Service central control. Eighty-four patients were transported in primary rescue missions and 107 as emergency transfers in 1990.
为改善英格兰东南部的创伤护理,已引入直升机紧急医疗服务(HEMS)。大部分工作量来自M25环路所环绕的区域。1989年,一架配备院前初级救援和医院间紧急二级转运设备的海豚365N直升机获得民航局认证。该直升机于1990年初开始搭载一名护理人员和一名医生运送患者。1990年9月,皇家伦敦医院开设了一个直升机停机坪,伦敦救护车服务中心控制处设立了一个指定的HEMS服务台,这进一步改善了这项服务。1990年,有84名患者通过初级救援任务被转运,107名患者作为紧急转运对象被运送。
