Today, we're defining another term in our Classic

Today, we're defining another term in our Classic 101 series: Ultrasound!

Ultrasound is an imaging test that uses sound waves to create a picture. Most people associate it with their first chance to see an infant in the womb, but it's got many more uses than just that!

Classic began using the technology in 2017 and this technology has since helped us to improve patient care and outcomes. A painless intervention, ultrasound’s popularity is on the rise in the critical care and pre-hospital environment as it is now more portable than ever- it literally fits in the palm of your hand. Classic utilizes ultrasound on all of their aircraft and all clinicians complete rigorous training to be able to perform this skill.

This is just another way Classic is caring about our patients and communities by bringing expert level medicine to some of the most austere environments on earth!

Today, Classic is shining its community spotlight

Today, Classic is shining its community spotlight on another we’re proud to be a part of: Elko NV!

Elko sits in the shadow of the Ruby Mountains. Founded in 1868, it has a rich history as a railroad town when the Transcontinental Railroad passed through the area. Today, it is the leading producer of gold in the United States and the home to fifth generation ranchers.

Elko is also home to Great Basin College founded in 1967 and a pioneer in long-distance learning due to the rural communities it serves. In 1985, the Western Folklife Center established The National Cowboy Poetry Gathering which is held in Elko annually. The beautiful scenery makes Elko a Hollywood favorite: Bing Crosby once owned a ranch in the region and was made honorary mayor in 1948. In 1951, he insisted that the world premiere of “Here Comes the Groom” be held in town. We can understand why!

Thank you Elko, it’s our honor to be a part of the community!

Today, we're defining another term in our Classic

Today, we're defining another term in our Classic 101 series: EZ Button

We created the EZ Button in-house to allow requesters to have faster access to launch a medical team at the touch of a button. Many of our hospital and clinic partners have limited staffing during overnight shifts or other unexpected high-stress times of the day. When they have a patient come in, we want them to be able to spend as much time as possible caring for the patients, and as little time as possible spent requesting our assistance. Our EZ Buttons are set up in their emergency departments and ICU’s to seamlessly integrate with each facility's pre-existing processes. When they're pressed, our communications team knows which hospital is requesting a transport, where they are sending the patient and is able to initiate a weather check and activate a crew within seconds. This saves time, giving the caregivers the ability to stay with the patient.

Today, Classic is shining its community spotlight

Today, Classic is shining its community spotlight on another one of our MedX bases that we’re proud to be a part of: Winnemucca NV!

Nestled at the intersection of US Highway 95 and Interstate 80, Winnemucca goes by the nickname: The Crossroads of the West. The city is named after Chief Winnemucca, a 19th Century Northern Paiute chief. In 1900, Butch Cassidy and his gang robbed the First National Bank of Winnemucca. They took $32,640.

Like much of Northern Nevada, Winnemucca’s economy is largely driven by mining. Today, the city boasts the highest percentage of Basque Americans in the nation. The area is packed with outdoor activities like hiking, hunting, and ATV’ing.

Thank you Winnemucca, it's our honor to be a part of the community!
