Question Medical transfers by SAR helicopter

Recently it was proposed to transfer one of our sick babies by helicopter ( an idea later abandoned for financial reasons). I had expressed a wish to be part of the transfer team but was told that the RAF would have to do it all as they would only let their own RAF or RAF-trained civilian transfer teams do these transports. My question is this: is this so, and if it is how does one gain the appropriate qualifications / skills? I would really love to be able to do this. Any help would be appreciated. It might be more sensible to reply to my other email address as my computer does not always let me into the PPRuNewebsite (it doesn't like its new anti-virus software very much). I can be contacted at [email protected] Thanks in advance> DX Wombat
