Mercy Flight Central was pleased to welcome Senator Pam Helming back to our Canandaigua headquarters for a visit with members of our leadership team and clinical staff. Senator Helming has long been a valued advocate for Mercy Flight Central and emergency medical services, and we are always grateful when she takes time while in the district to connect with our team and learn more about the work happening across our organization.

The conversation highlighted the essential role of nonprofit air medical transport, the highly specialized care provided by our flight nurses and paramedics, and the importance of maintaining a strong, sustainable emergency medical system for the communities we serve.

Visits like these provide an invaluable opportunity to discuss the evolving healthcare landscape, the challenges facing emergency medical providers, and the innovative ways Mercy Flight Central continues to adapt to meet the needs of our patients and healthcare partners. We deeply appreciate Senator Helming's thoughtful questions, genuine interest, and commitment to understanding how she can continue to support our mission.
