When Minutes Mean Life...

When minutes mean life, you can rely on Black Hills LifeFlight. The program is a joint effort between Rapid City Regional Hospital and Black Hills LifeFlight to provide the best medical transport to our region. A fully integrated medical transport team offers rapid access to emergency rotor wing (helicopter), fixed wing (airplane), and critical care ground transportation.

Black Hills LifeFlight Dispatch
1-800-232-2452

The Black Hills LifeFlight team consists of adult and pediatric nurses and paramedics, neonatal nurses, high-risk labor and delivery nurses, and experienced pilots. The flight team has the highest level of training and certifications and has the most up-to-date equipment possible to respond to nearly any situation. They work closely with Rapid City Regional Hospital Emergency Department and physicians to ensure the highest quality of patient care.

What happens in the first hour after a health tragedy significantly impacts a patient's chances for survival. This hour is known as the "golden hour" and it is when the flight team shines. From the time the dispatcher is notified, the team can be off the ground and on its way in a matter of minutes.
