“Partners for Life” is more than a slogan at MedFlight of Ohio. It takes shape in the special skills we use every day to do our jobs well. It’s teamwork, knowing that lives depend on how well we do our jobs together. And it’s simple decency, we understand that our clinical skills go a long way toward caring for our patients, but a kind word and compassion can go even further.

Are you one of us? We hope so. Thank you for wanting to be part of our team.

Our unique field of work attracts a special kind of talent. You must have emergency medical and/or critical care experience, that’s a given.

In the words of one of our MedFlight team leaders, “We’re part of a team that all works together to save a life.” Simply stated and very true. A commitment to the patients entrusted to our care is rooted in our commitment to one another as a team. We’re a close-knit bunch: we understand one another’s capabilities and know we can count on each other in any situation. We are called on to do extraordinary things every day, and we’re fully aware that the team is what makes it happen.

Maybe that’s not a question you are asked very often, but at MedFlight, we believe compassion is a fundamental value of people who provide the best medical care. You have a sincere desire to help others but you also have an instinct for saying and doing the right things when a crisis is at hand.

Whether you are assigned to one of our Mobile Intensive Care Units (MICUs) or our Helicopters you should know that the same standard of performance applies. The people who are happiest here are competent in their profession, confident in the services they provide, and are genuine about the people they care for.
