HALO Flight Inc

HALO-Flight is a nonprofit air ambulance based in Corpus Christi, Texas. The site calls it South Texas' nonprofit air ambulance. The company flies critically ill and injured patients across South Texas. Its base, dispatch and maintenance offices are at 1843 FM 665 in Corpus Christi.

The site says HALO-Flight covers 23 counties and 24,000 square miles. It says the service reaches over 1 million people in rural and urban areas. The company says it is the only air ambulance in 16 of those counties. In the rest of its area, it says it is the first choice.

HALO-Flight was founded in 1987 by a group of citizens, physicians and civic organizations. The site says the base moved to Corpus Christi in 1989. Since then, more than 26,000 critically ill and injured patients have been flown by air. In 2019 the company began carrying pre-hospital blood on every flight. Nearly half of its missions now involve responding at emergency scenes.

The site says the company has taken part in the Driscoll Children's Hospital Critical Transport Service for over 25 years. Its mission is to provide clinically superior air ambulance care to critically ill or injured people in its service area, regardless of ability to pay. The site says safety is the top priority for crew, patients and fleet.

The site lists pages for its operating fleet, onboard equipment, crew training and patient stories. It also lists a Guardian Plan membership, outreach and education programs, and healthcare partners. Patient payment and records requests have their own page.

The contact page lists the Corpus Christi base phone as 361-265-0509 and the fax as 361-265-0541. The site asks people not to send personal health information through its contact form. Visitors can donate, join the Guardian Plan or view events listed on the site.
