History
Bill Scott, founder of Lifeguard Aeromed Inc., started Lifeguard Air Ambulance in 1981 in an effort to combine his love for both aviation and medicine.
After a yearlong research project over a 5-state region, it was determined that there was a specific need for a fixed-wing air ambulance company in the state of Texas due to its central location and proximity to multiple medical institutions. Fort Worth Meacham was established as the home of Lifeguard Aeromed and remains the primary base of operations.
In 1997, Lifeguard Air Ambulance became incorporated, prompting the name change to Lifeguard Aeromed, Inc. As the company evolved, so did the air ambulance industry. Stricter federal regulations, more stringent insurance requirements, and challenges in the healthcare climate have made the aero medical industry a small and nimble group of air ambulance providers. Lifeguard Aeromed has worked closely with the Texas Department of Health and the FAA to ensure that the company meets the highest degree of quality assurance for each patient and customer.
Over the last 30 years, Lifeguard Aeromed has progressed into the various airplane types that you see today. From the Seneca to the Citation, Lifeguard Aeromed has built the company around the flexibility and customization required by a diverse patient population. The company has grown to include international flights serving Canada, Mexico, and the Caribbean.
Lifeguard Aeromed still prides itself on being a family owned and operated business. Bill and Pat Scott remain the principal owners, with both children working on the sales and marketing side of the company. While Lifeguard Aeromed currently employs anywhere from 30-50 people, it is not uncommon to find one of the owners working directly on a flight as they still have a passion and love for what they do.
