Hospital gains easy access to life flight

Staff at Hot Springs County Memorial Hospital will have a smoother time calling for life flight services with the hospital’s new “easy button.”

Hospital CEO Margie Molitor explained the button allows emergency room staff to immediately call the Wyoming Medical Center life flight service.

She noted the service can transport people anywhere, not just back to the Wyoming Medical Center.

Another advantage, she noted, is staff from Casper can transport blood as well, if necessary.

The button, she said, really expedites the whole process of calling and arranging transfers.
