STARS seeks Whitecourt partnership for funding and a helipad to cut emergency response times.
STARS air ambulance is seeking a partnership with Whitecourt to secure funding and build a local helipad, aiming to improve emergency response times.
At a Jan. 26 council meeting, STARS proposed a funding increase from $1 to $1.75 per capita by 2030 to help cover $36.6 million in annual operating costs, with $15 million already covered by Alberta Health Services.
The town’s council unanimously supported exploring the proposal and site planning for a helipad, noting Whitecourt’s 256 STARS missions in 15 years.
STARS, marking its 40th anniversary in 2025, operates 10 H145 helicopters with advanced medical equipment across Western Canada.
STARS busca la colaboración de Whitecourt para la financiación y un helipuerto para reducir los tiempos de respuesta a emergencias.
