Emergency Medical Services (EMS) takes longer time leading to life loss, whether it’s about an accident, out of hospital cardiac arrest (OOHCA) or drug delivery during the disaster. This paper proposes an efficient way to overcome this limitation by providing a medical aid aerially via a Multipurpose Medical Drone. A Quad-copter reaches the fatality spot employing GPS, carrying a payload containing components like AED (automatic external defibrillator), ECG, Temperature and Respiratory sensor to measure critical human body parameters. The measured values will be transmitted to a nearby hospital telemetrically using GSM or Wi-Fi for analyzing a patient’s condition beforehand and for diagnosis. It can also be used to carry blood sample, critical drug depending on the situation. Drone aid can be got using the helpline or an app where location and the particularities describing the situation is entered and the aid is rendered to the required spot. This assistance can save lives preserving the precious seconds and reduces the death toll in casualties.
