The students in West Palm Beach’s Forensic Biology class visited the Palm Beach County Trauma Hawk facility to speak with the EMT and pilots operating in the EMT Trauma Program serving Palm Beach County. Trauma Hawk helicopters are designed with the latest medical technology and experienced medical teams to provide care to the most critical patients.  A large portion of the patients they serve have been injured in shootings and other criminal activity and vehicle accidents.  These air ambulances airlift the patients to designated trauma centers in the county.  The students toured the helicopters, the hangar and the other areas of the facility.
