Welcome back to the Valor Flight Crew Podcast, hosted by ECHO and brought to you by Vertical HeliCASTS and Vertical Valor magazine.
In this episode, we sit down with two incredible clinicians from Boston MedFlight, Jamie Eastman and Widmac (Wid) Laterion. Together, they take us inside the daily mission and operations of one of the nation’s most respected critical care transport programs.
From the challenges of neonatal and pediatric transports to the transition from military service into civilian medicine, Jamie and Wid share amazing insights from their unique journeys. You’ll hear about the training and preparation that keep their teams ready for the most complex cases, including high-fidelity simulation, rigorous onboarding, and the importance of crew resource management.
We’ll also explore Boston MedFlight’s transition to the Airbus H145 D3 and how this advanced airframe helps them deliver safe, effective care to critically ill and injured patients. Along the way, our guests reflect on memorable missions, collaboration across Massachusetts healthcare systems, and what it means to be part of a program dedicated to the highest standards of patient care. Thanks for tuning in, let’s get into it!
Thank you to our sponsors Airbus, Coptersafety and Spectrum Aeromed.
