.......Be very cautious about the particular operation. Many operators let their flights be dictated and run not by the pilots but by the medical personnel. The nurses tend to make a lot more money than the pilots, and their opinions tend to carry more weight. In such an operation, when a pilot makes a safety of flight decision and the nurse tries to countermand it, the safest and best choice is to walk away. Always be prepared to do that if the need be...and be prepared for that occasion to arise if you operate in the ambulance business for very long.
A woman has been run over by her own truck. She slid off the road in a snowstorm. While standing outside her truck, the truck was struck by another vehicle and it went over here, pinning her and inuring her. She has been extricated and has experienced not only physical trauma, but a heart attack. Weather is low at the pickup airport, a rural field with minimal facilities. Weather is low at the destination airport, some 200 miles from the pickup field. Due to road conditions this woman cannot be transported by ambulance; it's up to you. If you don't pick her up, she will die. What do you do?
