AIIMS Rishikesh to start country’s first aero medical training course

All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Rishikesh, which is going to start heli ambulance service from March 2023, will also start Aero Medical Training Course from this year itself.

Under this course, the candidate will be given training in knowledge, skill and decision making with the help of experts from America and Israel. All this will be possible by installing Heli Simulator under Heli Emergency Medical System (HEMS).

This system will be installed within a year, which will serve as Heli Emergency Medical Training Center. DRDO will provide technical and AIIMS medical support in this. AIIMS Rishikesh will have the right to train and issue certificates for Heli Ambulance service if it starts anywhere in the country in future.
