- Today we were proud to introduce our two newest team members, a pair of Airbus H145 helicopters, flying here past our iconic BK117. The H145 will gradually replace all of our fleet, ensuring we'll continue to be there for the next generation of patients who need us.
- A crash left STARS VIP Jason Lunn dependent on a wheelchair. Before his daughter's high school grad, though, he rigged a stand-up wheelchair with a plate so they could share a dance. Great dads like Jason deserve a #HappyFathersDay. Watch for these two in the 2019 STARS Calendar.
