The SUS helicopter landing site in Stavanger is a heliport that specializes in emergency medical transport and research. It is known for its pioneering testing of ultrasound technology in air ambulances, making it the first in the world to conduct such studies. This work aims to improve emergency care outside hospitals and contribute to faster treatment of patients with life-threatening conditions, such as seizures.
The heliport is also committed to strengthening preparedness in the region, including by participating in events such as the Arctic Race of Norway. Support from members is an important part of the operation, and contributes to saving lives and improving health services in the area. The location in Ålesund provides a scenic setting for the operation, which combines research and practical emergency medicine.
