Christoph 37, Rescue helicopter at Südharz Hospital, Nordhausen, Germany
Christoph 37 is an Airbus H135 helicopter based at Sudharz Hospital in Nordhausen, operated by DRF Luftrettung. The aircraft is equipped with modern medical gear and can respond quickly from its base location in the region.
The helicopter began operations on October 1, 1992, initially under federal government oversight. In 2006, DRF Luftrettung took over management and operations of the air rescue service.
The name Christoph reflects a German naming tradition for rescue helicopters, with Saint Christopher recognized as the patron of travelers. This choice connects the air rescue service to local values and heritage.
The helicopter covers a large service area and can take off quickly in good weather conditions. Note that the landing pad has restricted access for safety reasons during operations.
The crew includes three pilots, emergency paramedics from the German Red Cross, and physicians from the hospital clinics. This specialized team works together to provide emergency care in hard-to-reach areas.
