Christoph Berlin

Christoph Berlin is an emergency medical transport helicopter based in Berlin-Buch that rapidly moves critically ill and injured patients across the metropolitan area. The aircraft carries specialized equipment and allows intensive care providers to treat patients in flight, reaching destinations that ground vehicles would take much longer to serve.

The base was officially opened on May 30, 2024, expanding the emergency response capacity of DRF Luftrettung in the Berlin region. This addition strengthened medical air transport coverage across the metropolitan area and surrounding districts.

The helicopter service represents Germany's dedication to emergency medical care, integrating aviation expertise with advanced medical support for critical situations.

The helicopter crew consists of medical professionals with at least five years of intensive care experience who monitor patients throughout transport. The team coordinates ground-based care and communication with receiving hospitals to ensure a smooth transition of care upon arrival.

The service maintains direct communication with patient families throughout each flight mission to keep them informed about transport status. Additionally, insurance specialists assist with documentation and processing reimbursement claims for medical air transport.
