How about getting the
Beriev Be 42 from russia and fitting western engines and avionics. According to the following website,
http://www.aeronautics.ru/archive/vvs/a40-01.htm
, "The Be-42 SAR aircraft would be able to take 54 survivors of a marine accident and would be equipped with liferafts, powerboats and a range of specialized medical equipment including a transfusion machine, defibrillator and ECG. It would also be equipped with various infrared sensors and a searchlight."
