AIR COMPASSION FOR VETERANS
The mission and purpose of Air Compassion For Veterans is to ensure that no financially-stressed wounded warrior / veteran / active duty military person or their family member(s) is denied access to distant specialized medical evaluation, diagnosis, treatment, or rehabilitation for lack of a means of long-distance medical air transportation. ACV is committed to the ongoing healing process of our wounded warriors and will provide transport for activities that aid in the process as long as needed.
The influx of wounded warriors during Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom is, and has been, a strain on our military medical facilities. Thousands of these wounded men and women need to reach specialized medical facilities, especially as close as possible to their families. The military cannot always provide the needed transportation and other options are not always available. That is when Air Compassion for Veterans can be utilized. We will continue to provide this air transportation at no cost.
ACV has added this service for veterans who served prior to the OIF/OEF conflict. ACV has also broadened its scope to provide air transportation for the special needs of veterans suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI).
The majority of our missions are through commercial airlines.
We can also provide air ambulance service for qualified patients that are non-ambulatory.
Our partner Angel Flight pilots and planes can be utilized for remote and rural areas as well as flights that are within 1,000 miles.
The qualification process is simple. There is a one page form to complete.
After verification the patient can be in the air within twenty-four hours.
