Health Drones advance healthcare in Greenland

Health Drones advance healthcare in Greenland

Today, Falck completed first health drone flight between Nuuk and the settlements in Sermersooq. The infrastructure in Greenland can be a challenge if you live in small settlements far away from the nearest hospital. Falck and the Greenlandic authorities are exploring how health drones can support the healthcare system by bringing remote-living citizens closer to healthcare service

Falck starts flying drones in Greenland

Falck and the Greenlandic health service will test the use of drones to transport medicine and diagnostic samples between towns and settlements. The intention of the project is to investigate how drones can strengthen health efforts in the settlements, where infrastructure is a challenge, and the nearest hospital is far away.
