For the last 34 years, he has dedicated his service to HealthNet Aeromedical Services and is currently stationed at the Huntington, West Virginia aircraft base at Cabell Huntington Hospital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cEvery day, I see patients fly in and out of the hospital in the aircraft I maintain. I am proud to be part of the team that can help them in their greatest hour of need. This award is such an honor and is a testament to our awesome team and the work we do to make an impact in my community and the industry,\u201d said Godbey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The award will be presented to Mark during the Association of Air medical Services\u2019 Air Medical Transport Conference taking place in Fort Worth, Texas in October.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p># # #<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About HealthNet Aeromedical Services<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About Air Methods<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Air Methods (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.airmethods.com\">www.airmethods.com<\/a>) is the leading air medical service, delivering lifesaving care to more than 70,000 people every year.
