Welcome to the Valor Flight Crew Podcast, hosted by ECHO and brought to you by Vertical HeliCASTS and Vertical Valor Magazine.

In this episode, hosts Blake Shrider and Mike Fadale sit down with Steve Soliz from Bell.

Steve takes us through his unique journey—from serving as a medic to becoming a nurse, and now, playing a pivotal role in shaping the future of public safety aviation. We dive into the importance of collaboration within the helicopter emergency medical services (HEMS) industry, the evolving technology that’s driving innovation, and the challenges our crews face on the front lines.

We'll also discuss everything from the complexities of maintaining clinical excellence in a high-stakes environment, to managing the mental health pressures that come with this demanding work.

Plus, we take a look at the global landscape of air medical services, and how data-driven decisions and strategic planning are critical to advancing patient care and safety.

So, whether you’re a seasoned HEMS professional or just starting your career in public safety aviation, this conversation is packed with insights you won’t want to miss.

Thank you to our sponsors Bell, Metro Aviation and Precision Aviation Group.
