Today we celebrate International Women’s Day and recognize the incredible women who lead, serve, and strengthen our communities every day.

At Island Air Ambulance, we are especially proud to celebrate our Founder, President, and Director of Operations, Jackie Hamilton. Jackie’s vision, determination, and leadership built Island Air Ambulance into the mission-driven service it is today. Her commitment to our island communities and to the teams who serve them continues to inspire us every day.

Jackie exemplifies what it means to lead with courage, compassion, and purpose. Through her work, she has opened doors and set an example for women in aviation, emergency medicine, and leadership everywhere.

Today we honor Jackie and all the women who dedicate their lives to caring for others and making our communities stronger.

Happy International Women’s Day from all of us at Island Air Ambulance.

Happy Groundhog Day! While Phil may have seen his shadow, there’s no slowing down for us through the remainder of the Pacific Northwest winter. We’re upgrading our fleet with state-of-the-art Hamilton T1 ventilators, and our teams continue to sharpen their critical care skills to deliver the highest level of care to our island communities.

To Our Community, Partners, and Emergency Services Family,

As the Clinical Chief of Island Air Ambulance, I want to extend my deepest gratitude to the people of Friday Harbor and the greater San Juan County community, as well as to our dedicated staff and the surrounding agencies who stand with us every day.

Serving this region is a privilege—one made possible only through the strength of our partnerships and the unwavering support of those who share in our mission. Every call we answer, every patient we care for, and every life we touch is a testament to the teamwork that defines this community.

To our partner fire departments, EMS, law enforcement, government, and hospital agencies, thank you for your professionalism, your rapid response, and your deep commitment to those we serve. Your skill and compassion at the scene and bedside set the foundation for the lifesaving care that follows. Whether on land or in the air, we are honored to work side-by-side with you.

To the Island Air Ambulance staff, your dedication humbles me. You meet each challenge with expertise, heart, and resilience. The work you do is demanding and often unseen, but its impact is profound. I am proud of each of you and grateful for the care you provide our neighbors.

And to the communities of the San Juan Islands, thank you for your continued trust and support. You inspire us to be better each day. We are not just an air medical service—we are part of this community, tied to it through shared purpose, mutual respect, and a commitment to ensuring that high-quality emergency care is always within reach.

Together, we have built something strong. Together, we save lives. And together, we will continue to rise to the needs of our island home.

With sincere appreciation,

Josh Jensen FP-C
