Yesterday, we welcomed Senator Catherine Cortez Masto staff members to our campus to show them the skill and dedication of our clinical and support services staff at REMSA Health and Care Flight to deliver care #WhenItMattersMost. Senator Cortez Masto has a deep understanding of the complexities of the health care system, as well as how the out-of-hospital health care provided by private ambulance services likes ours fit into that landscape. For many years, her efforts have been critical in ensuring the sustainability of EMS and increasing patient access to quality mobile healthcare services. We are incredibly grateful to the Senator and her staff for all of their dedicated and thoughtful work.
