In short

Veltracon Medical supports yachting and private aviation as part of the Shadow ICU standby: expert advice on the essential medical equipment for a yacht or aircraft, training programmes that prepare crews to respond in an emergency and to work with the hotline, a dedicated team standing by to guide a crew through a medical emergency in real time, and medical rescue operations coordinated by land, air or sea. Beyond helicopter range there is no evacuation and whatever is aboard is all there is until port, so clinicians and equipment can be placed within reach and held for the full stay, dedicated to a single person, with intensive care continuing without interruption during any transfer.

At sea it is range.

Beyond helicopter range there is no evacuation. Whatever is aboard is all there is until port.

On remote islands the nearest intensive care unit is often hours away by boat or seaplane, and weather grounds aircraft for days.

Veltracon Medical supports yachting and aviation with advice on medical equipment for vessel and aircraft, training for crews, and a team standing by to guide a crew through a medical emergency in real time.
