DDC Care by Air project with DSV & Halton Healthcare is commercially operational

The future of next-generation logistics for a safe and secure healthcare supply chain is here. DSV is partnering in the launch of the Care by Air project, in collaboration with DDC, McMaster University, and Air Canada Cargo, to assist develop a reliable, and efficient process for transporting medical supplies and products through a drone delivery system.

The solution will be utilized to transport a wide range of healthcare supplies, including medical isotopes for cancer care (provided by McMaster University), using cargo drones to Oakville Trafalgar Memorial Hospital in Oakville, Ontario, for quick and effective delivery.

This drone delivery of vital medical supplies is the first of its type in Canada, delivering healthcare items directly to a hospital for on-site patient diagnosis, treatment, or care. Drone delivery innovation will facilitate the delivery of time-sensitive commodities, allowing the next frontier in healthcare delivery.

The project also intends to gain support and clearance for the future transportation of a wide range of healthcare supplies and products by cargo drones, such as specimens such as blood or human tissue to diagnose and cure heart disease and cancer.
