What we are about & how we are different:
We believe being on the track with our riders is the only way to really grasp what is going on to provide care at a moments notice. Our crew of EMT's can be at an injured persons side in just moments. We are stationed within the event (track, hill climb, woods) where we are afforded a vantage point that is unique in emergency care. By witnessing an injury occur or being moments away from an injured person we are preventing delays in the care process. Being able to rule out a loss of consciousness, or other life threats will help dictate how an injured person will be treated.
Sitting in an ambulance waiting to be called by the track personnel is no different than calling 911, the EMS crew goes in blind not knowing what happened. Hired services who operate like this have no relationship with the promoter, the family or the riders. This standard of operation has resulted in unnecessary transports, hospital bills and worst of all, a negative attitude toward emergency services at venues all over the country. Distrust of a care provider can result in an injured party declining care or avoiding EMS to later find out significant injuries exist.
We follow NFPA 610 training for Emergency and Safety Operations at Motorsports Venues.
What we do for the rider & promoter
Flynn Emergency Services works with promoters and event owners to improve safety and operations, we provide a layer of safety for all attendees at the venues we service. We speak to our riders and families, we use their input and suggestions to improve safety and transparency. We try to involve ourselves in all facets of event operations to help maintain a safe environment allowing for immediate care when needed.
What tools & training make us special:
Our staff is trained to use the Eject Helmet Removal system, a special device that helps prevent neck injury or movement when a helmet must be removed. This device is used in many professional sports. We are specially trained to use this device and advocate its use to all riders we come in contact with.
All of our staff members have special training in motocross injury management. Our units are setup specifically for traumatic injuries. While we can still manage a cardiac event or something as simple as a headache, we have outfitted all of our trucks with redundant equipment focusing on traumatic injuries and treatment of life threats.
Our staff is required to have a minimum of 24 hours of continuing education per year, this course of study is often focused on trauma. We have an annual EVOC (emergency vehicle operations course) to cover track operations and safe driving practices.
Behind the scenes:
We pre plan routes of travel at the event and make contact with external emergency resources available to us to provide the highest level of care in the shortest amount of time. We coordinate with local hospitals, life flight and local ambulance services to coordinate rapid transport and treatment.
