The Sydney Hobart rescues of 1998 clearly indicate Helimed 1. But that was with the old 412 VH-NSP. When Mr Kennett was? booted out of government, the new government of Steve Bracks started with the replacemnt of all Helicopters, Hems 1 (air495) Hems 2 (Helimed 1) and Bendigo. Hence the new Bell 412 helicopters. VA VAA Bendigo VA VAB Gippsland (Helimed 1) 2 New Dauphin n3 for Air495 (Hems 1) and Air491 Police airwing (Blue) 2 new 412's to commence soon in vic to bring total to 5 air ambulances

In 1997, Mr Kennett and his cronies finally realised its benefits and continued the funding, In a restructure of the ambulance service of Victoria. Helimed 1's control was transferred to Air Ambulance Victoria, to work along side Air495. It? was decided in 1999 to rename the fleet hence the Hems1,Hems 2 and later Hems 3, and soon Hems 4 and Hems 5 titles. Again the communities of Gippsland and eastern vic fought to retain the name Helimed 1, and won again. Its callsign is still Helimed 1

When setup by the NSCA in the early eighties it was known? as Helimed 1. When NSCA collapsed Lloyd Helicopters (CHC Australia) took ova the contract with the ambulance service victoria south eastern region, who were responsible for it. Not air ambulance victoria. Excessive cutbacks by the kennett government in the mid 90's threatened it survival. But the local communities of Gippsland and eastern vic fought for its survival and won.

Not knowing who you are responding to and since it's identified? as HEMS 2 in the title I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. FYI HEMS 2 is also known as Helimed 1.

Great video. Good to see sum of victoria's units on here. This one Helimed 1 based in the latrobe Valley. Contracted by CHC to the Victorian Ambulance Service. Other units based at Bendigo & Melbourne, with funding allocated this year for two more bell 412's, 1 at Warnnambool and the other? unit for melbourne to compliment the two n3 dauphins already on contract by CHC for police and ambulance service. Champions. Well done
