Westinghouse Traction Staff elevator @ Roanoke Memorial Hospital Roanoke VA

This is the staff elevator at Carilion’s Roanoke Memorial Hospital in Roanoke VA. I know I said community, but it is the memorial hospital, anyway still a cool elevator! It is still relay controlled and has the classic Otis feel. The buttons were replaced (by Schindler) in the late 90s according to an employee in the hospital.

Multiple Helicopters over Carilion Roanoke Memorial Hospital

admin — Sun, 17 Jan 2010 07:25:06 +0000

Wednesday, October 10 was a busy day for Carilion Roanoke Memorial Hospital. A plane crash and unrelated heart attack resulted in three in-bound medical flights arriving at the hospital at about the same time. Carilion LifeGuard 11 and a Virginia State Police medevac helicopter responded to the small plane crash in Hillsville, while LifeGuard 11 responded to a Heart Alert emergency, (a Carilion program to identify heart attack patients at the surrounding community hospitals and fly them directly to the hospital’s heart catheterization lab for treatment). Carilion LifeGuard 10 landed on the rooftop helipad first with the Heart Alert patient, kept the rotors turning and took off as soon as the patient was safely off the pad. As LifeGuard 10 left the pad in one direction, LifeGuard 11 circled around from the other direction and landed with the first plane crash victim. As that victim was being taken off the helicopter, the State Police helicopter landed at the Carilion LifeGuard hangar down the street and the second plane crash victim was transported the remaining short distance to the Emergency Department by ground ambulance. The plane crash victims are listed in fair condition. The Carilion Patient Transportation Service dispatch center did an incredible job coordinating the incoming helicopter and ground traffic!
