Korea's HEMS are mainly operated during the week, but they are pushing for 24-hour operations. This study has made an overall comparison and review of helicopter safety management that should be accompanied to this end. For research purposes, helicopter regulations and helicopter accident statistics were analyzed, with a high accident rate associated with pilot error and night flight. It was proposed that future preparations would require reinforcement of laws and regulations, reinforcement of pilots' night training, and introduction of training and preflight risk assessments. This study will provide a direction for future helicopter safety. This study will provide for future direction of helicopter safety research.

There are only 14 public medical facilities available to residents regularly in the island area of Chungcheongnam-do, one health life support center, and one hospital ship, and these facilities and equipment cannot effectively respond to emergency patients such as severe trauma, cerebrovascular and cardiovascular diseases. The fastest means of transporting emergency patients is to use a doctor helicopter deployed at Dankook University Hospital (based in Cheonan). However, there is only one doctor helicopter deployed, and it cannot operate at night, and since it is in charge of all areas of Chungcheongnam-do, there is a limit to rapid transport in the event of a large number of patients. Therefore, we would like to review the necessity of "Chungnam-type Doctor UAM Development" to compensate for the problems of the urban aviation mobility (UAM) industry and the emergency patient transport system in islands, a field of the 4th industry.
