Written by Mac Watson on May 3, 2023
Keith Ungrund, Chief Clinical Officer at Cody Regional Health, and Heather Stamey, Senior Director of Emergency and Critical Care with St. Vincent’s Hospital in Billings, spoke about a new service coming to Cody this summer. It’s called First Flight of Wyoming and it’s a transport service that people who need emergency care can take advantage of when they need to get to Billings quickly. They spoke about how the program came about, why CRH teamed up with St. Vincent’s Hospital to bring another air flight service to the Big Horn Basin. The aircraft will be based out of Greybull and staffed 24/7.
