“A nurse in the sky is the best of both worlds.”
That quote from a recent Business Air News article captured something we’ve known all along: when you combine world-class aviation with real clinical care, you’re not just offering a flight — you’re offering peace of mind.
We’re proud to share that Air Nurses is now the official in-flight medical team for ParaFlight, providing credentialed nurses to accompany clients on select charter flights. This partnership is designed for those situations that don’t quite call for a full medical flight — but still deserve expert support.
Why This Matters
Some clients don’t need an air ambulance.
But they also shouldn’t be flying alone.
Post-surgical recovery. Complex medications. Mobility challenges. Chronic conditions. These are the kinds of things that can turn a standard charter into a stressful experience — unless you have the right person onboard.
That’s where our nurses come in.
At Air Nurses, we provide clinically trained, aviation-ready professionals who support clients discreetly throughout the journey. From pre-flight prep to in-flight care and arrival coordination, we act as a calm, competent presence so families can breathe a little easier.
What the Article Got Right
Business Air News hit on something subtle but important: this isn’t just about adding a nurse to a flight. It’s about redefining what’s possible in non-emergency medical travel.
Ericka Essington, our founder and lead strategist, put it plainly:
“There’s a gap between a standard medical escort and a critical care transport. We’re here to fill that gap — with the same professionalism, the same compassion, and a higher standard of care.”
Not Just For Emergencies
Some of the most meaningful flights we’ve done weren’t dramatic.
They were simply important.
Helping a parent return home after surgery
Making it possible for a grandparent to attend a family gathering
Supporting a cancer patient through treatment travel
Ensuring a safe, calm environment for someone with memory care needs
These moments matter. And they deserve the same thoughtful planning as any high-stakes transport.
