Each highly skilled critical care team comprises a pilot and co-pilot, a pre-hospital care doctor, and a critical care paramedic, who work together to bring expert care directly to critically ill and injured patients. Once stabilized, patients are transported to the most appropriate hospital by air or land for further treatment. EHAAT is a charity that operates entirely free of charge to patients, with no direct government or National Lottery funding. It costs £12 million annually to keep the service running, relying on the extraordinary generosity of individuals, businesses, and communities across Essex and Hertfordshire.
