No one is really sure what the next few days will look like for Pittsburgh, other than traffic is expected to be heavier than usual due to the traffic restrictions in the downtown area. While traffic will be open for emergency vehicles, residual commuter delays may make navigating through the area difficult during peak periods. If you are transporting a critical patient during these times and believe that the traffic delays may have a negative effect on the patient’s outcome, we recommend you consider calling STAT MedEvac to transport the patient. STAT MedEvac will make additional resources available to ensure that all critical patients can continue to be quickly transported to tertiary care facilities.
