Our charity was established in 2009 as Irish Community Rapid Response and in 2019 it successfully launched Ireland’s first and only charity Air Ambulance. Over a 36 month period it was tasked to more than 1,500 serious incidents and emergencies including Cardiac Arrests, Road Traffic Accidents, Farm Accidents and other serious medical emergencies and traumas. Our team of Emergency Medical Responders have responded to over 1,800 calls in the past three years, an average of 600 responses annually. In 2023 we began to trade as CRITICAL, and we are now focused on expanding our network of Volunteer Emergency Medical Responders and CRITICAL Community First Responders across Ireland.
