Gabe Gutierrez - MedX AirOne Flight Paramedic Gab

Gabe Gutierrez - MedX AirOne Flight Paramedic

Gabe’s choice in career could be called serendipitous. “One day I came across a brochure for the EMT program at the local community college. As I read through it and did some research, I quickly realized that this sounded like a career I would enjoy. It's funny how a single action or finding can alter the course of someone's life so significantly.”

For the past 9 years, Gabe Gutierrez has been serving in EMS. His well-rounded resume includes experience on ambulances, teaching classes, and flying critical care patients. He explains: “I craved to know more about patient care, physiology, and treatments in order to better serve my community... My career has always kept me wanting to learn more and continue a journey of personal growth.

Gabe came to MedX AirOne with a desire to learn, to grow his skill set. When he arrived he found like minded co-workers, who were willing to challenge him and feed the flame kindled inside him to continuously improve.

Gabe not only desires to grow personally, he wants to help others along their journey. Whether he is patiently teaching classes, masterfully preparing a meal to share, or competently caring for a patient. Gabe is invested in the lives of others.

In his spare time, Gabe enjoys building and working with his hands. His projects range from small planters to remodeling homes and campers. Recently, Gabe worked with his dad to build a duplex. “My current project is a homemade camper for my truck, which has been awesome.”
Gabe also bicycles, fishes, hikes, and hangs out with his four-legged friend, Whiskey.

Audie Douglass, MedX AirOne Flight Nurse, Winnemuc

Audie Douglass, MedX AirOne Flight Nurse, Winnemucca Base:

For Audie, life started as a first generation born American citizen. "After my father migrated from Mexico to Idaho at the age of 20. He traveled to become an American citizen and allow his children to live the American dream of opportunity. The dream of a Flight Nurse."

While in high school, Audie became a CNA working in a tiny county nursing home. "I’ve taken multiple tiny steps to establish a career as a flight nurse. By the grace of God, He had great plans for me to serve others."

Audie lived in Lamoille, NV for 5 years and became part of the Elko MedX AirOne family on day one. Now she lives in Idaho and works for MedX AirOne mainly based in Winnemucca. "I’ve grown in this wonderful community of EMS, hospital, and first responder colleagues in Northern Nevada. "

Audie believes that medical knowledge is the foundation of patient care and to that foundation Audie adds her personal touch. "I truly believe God gifted me with a kind, open-hearted soul and touch to share with my patients who are experiencing a life crisis. Adding in a soft touch to the hand, a gentle look in the eyes, or a sweet voice during chaos, has always been rewarding."

When not working, Audie is busy at home with her family. They live on a few acres in Idaho, raising cattle, a chicken and 2 dachshunds.

"We’re avid fly fishing adventurers, mountaineer travelers, winter sports lovers, and we try to sneak in a dirt bike or mountain bike ride in between it all."

Thank you, Audie, for seeing your patients and coworkers as people needing care, encouragement and support. We are grateful!

To Amberlia Lefeber working at MedX AirOne fulfill

To Amberlia Lefeber working at MedX AirOne fulfills a childhood goal. As a little girl, she told her dad when she grew up she was going to drive an ambulance. Now, as one of our part-time EMTs, she does.

She grew up outside of Reno in Spanish Springs, but moved to the area in 2014. Her desire to be “a calm, friendly face in a chaotic situation” and her motivation to serve her community led her to MedX AirOne in December 2020.

In May, she completed her Advanced EMT certification at Great Basin College. Her long term goal is to become a paramedic. At MedX AirOne, Amberlia enjoys being able to train with and work with our flight crews on Critical Care Transports.

When Amberlia is not on an ambulance or studying for another exam, she enjoys spending time reading, relaxing with her family and being in the fresh air. She’s an avid hunter, proficient in both bow and rifle hunting. “We hunt to feed our family,” she said. “We don’t buy meat from the store, but every once in a while.”

Thank you, Amberlia, for your desire to grow in your chosen field and for being the calm in the storm!

In 2008, Matt Crane began EMS work serving communities in Idaho, Utah and Nevada. He made the choice because he wanted to help create quality care for the areas he lived in and for the people he loved. Earning his flight paramedic certification in 2016 he took to the skies. He’s been with MedX AirOne since 2019 where he not only serves as a flight medic but also as our resident tech guy.

Whether he is working on processes for efficient care or finding the most effective technological solution for communication, his drive to make good go from better and from better to best creates an environment of progress for all who work at MedX AirOne’s bases.

Matt doesn’t understand the word impossible. When approached with a problem, medical or administrative, that most would write off, Matt smiles .and works on a solution.

In his time off, Matt loves to spend time with his wife and daughter.

As an avid SCUBA diver, adventuring to the depths of more than just the ocean, he has explored Island Park, Red Fish Lake, Blue Lake south of Wendover, and the Salish Sea around Vancouver. His dive schedule has been interrupted by the needs of his baby, but his optimistic spirit isn’t daunted. “I’m sure by next year I’ll be back to diving once a week or so. I still haven’t figured out a solution to pediatric hyperbarics.”

Thank you, Matt, for your heart, your innovation and your dedication to providing quality care on and off duty!

Erin Gallegos is one of MedX AirOne’s highly qua

Erin Gallegos is one of MedX AirOne’s highly qualified and motivated flight nurses. Erin believes that nursing is part of her makeup, part of her DNA. At 12 years old, she chose to be a nurse.
Her school was having a career day and “I had no idea what I was going to dress-up as, and was stressed for a whole week about showing up as just myself.”
Waking early that morning, her first thought was “I am going to be a nurse.”
“It was like God spoke to me,” she said, “and I knew this was the pathway I wanted to follow.”
Obtaining her Bachelors in Nursing from Great Basin College and then earning her Master’s Degree from Grand Canyon University, she’s been walking the path for the past nine years, constantly growing and learning.
“Within medicine, you can never know enough or know everything. Life-long learning is a huge component of what keeps me going. I love learning.”
To see the patients she cares for improve, heal and return to their lives is a top motivator for her.
When not flying, Erin loves to travel, near or far, backpacking or driving, at the seaside or on a mountain top, alone or with her children.
“We love to just load up the truck and start driving to random places, making stops to make life-long memories.”
Thank you, Erin, for all for all the memories you have made and the lives you have helped be better! Your spirit of adventure and willingness to grow inspire those around you -- your family, friends and co-workers -- to strive to greater heights.

Brian Daniels began working as an aviation mechani

Brian Daniels began working as an aviation mechanic in 1978, 43 years ago. In that time, he’s seen many advancements in aviation. Working at MedX AirOne’s Ely base, he oversees our PC-12 stationed there.

Besides daily checks on the aircraft, Brian runs the required 100 hour inspections, making certain the aircraft is ready for its next transport.

Not only is Brian a dedicated mechanic, he’s also a dedicated cyclist. “I used to race,” he said. “But now, I keep it up for my health.” He logs nearly 80 miles a week on his bikes which are never too far away.

Whether he is meticulously inspecting the aircraft for the next flight or persevering over the next hill on a recreational ride through the mountain trails of White Pine county, Brian’s commitment to excellence is apparent.

Without Brian, and our other well-qualified mechanics, MedX AirOne’s clinicians could not do their jobs. Thank you, Brian, for being an important part of the team!
