American Emergency Vehicles (AEV^®) will showcase two highly customized critical care transport (CCT) ambulances at EMS World Expo in New Orleans, Louisiana, from September 20-22, 2023, booth #1029. CCT is considered the highest level of patient care for the most critically injured or ill patients. The ambulances are designed to accommodate the extra equipment required when transporting patients in critical condition.

“We want to thank both the Kite Flight Specialty Transport Team of Covenant Children’s Hospital (Lubbock, Texas) and the Orlando Health Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children (Orlando, Florida) for partnering with us on the design of these exceptional ambulances and for allowing us to display them at this important EMS industry event,” said Randy Barr, director of sales, AEV. “We are also grateful to the AEV dealers involved in these sales, namely SERVS, LLC and ETR, LLC, respectively,” added Barr.
