Introducing the ZOLL AutoPulse NXT ~aka~ our version of the LUCAS device!🫀

When it comes to improving patient outcomes, both devices deliver, but for us at Air Methods, the AutoPulse NXT is the best fit for the unique environment we operate in. With limited space in the aircraft and the critical nature of the patients we transport, the AutoPulse offers the right combination of performance, safety, size, and adaptability for our crews.

✨ Key Benefits of the AutoPulse NXT include:

✅ Consistent, high-quality CPR in flight and on the ground
✅ Hands-free operation allows clinicians to provide other critical patient care
✅ Compact and portable design ideal for aircraft cabin constraints
✅ Improved safety for flight crews during turbulent conditions

🚁 Employee Spotlight: David Winnette 🚁

Meet David, one of our Flight Nurses! With 12 years of flight experience, his passion continues in caring for high-acuity patients.

Before life in the skies, David spent 5 years as an ED nurse at MUMC, where he built the skills that led him to flight nursing.

💬 Favorite part of the job: “I love the intensity of what we do and helping people in critical moments.”

💡 Best memory: Watching a former patient graduate high school—a full-circle moment he’ll never forget.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Family & pets: Proud husband of his wife, dad of 5 kids, and pet parent to 2 dogs and 3 cats.

⛵️ Hobbies: Building model boats, all things Star Wars, and taking trips to Disney.

🥦 Fun fact: He absolutely hates broccoli.

Thank you for all you do, David! 👏🏼

Behind the scenes: giving our helicopter flotation system a thorough check to make sure we’re ready for anything - even a water landing. Safety doesn’t take a day off! 🚁🛟

During scheduled maintenance checks, we swap into a spare aircraft so we’re always mission-ready!
