The identifier 'US-11222' is not officially recognized and is considered invalid or defunct. However, the physical heliport at this location has not closed and remains fully operational as the Christiana Hospital Heliport (FAA: 0DE1).
The identifier 'US-11222' was likely an erroneous entry in a non-governmental, third-party aviation database. The physical facility itself never ceased operations, so there was no reason for closure (e.g., economic, military, etc.).
The site is the active and private Christiana Hospital Heliport (FAA: 0DE1). It is a modern, rooftop helipad used exclusively by medical helicopters, such as STAT MedEvac and other air ambulance services. It is a vital piece of infrastructure for the hospital's trauma center, cardiovascular program, and neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).
The heliport is located atop the Christiana Hospital, part of the ChristianaCare health system. As the only Level I trauma center for both adults and children in Delaware, this heliport has played a crucial historical and ongoing role in regional emergency medical services (EMS). For decades, it has been the primary landing zone for medevac helicopters transporting critically ill and injured patients from across Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey. Its sole purpose has always been to support life-saving air ambulance operations.
Not applicable. The heliport is currently open, fully licensed, and in continuous operation. There are no known plans for its closure.
