New Haven, CT (September 19, 2023) - YNHCH recently partnered with AMR, which purchased 2 brand new state of the art ambulances for their pediatric & neonatal critical care teams. These new ambulances will provide the safest and most efficient transportation of our neonatal and pediatric patients that require critical care services and treatment.
The YNHCH teams are trained and equipped to provide full ICU capabilities, monitoring, and advanced airway and ventilation management during transport of children all across the state and northeast region. The new ambulances provide more reliable transports and are outfitted with new advanced technology, which leads to better performance during emergency situations. In addition to being considerably more comfortable and climate-controlled, the 4-wheel drive capability will provide more stability as our teams navigate roads during inclement weather conditions. The custom designed interior will be stocked with all the necessary equipment to stabilize, treat, and transport YNHCH pediatric patients.
