TOLL rescue helicopter from Marouya to Cooma.


Recommended Posts

I have a friend who flies them for Toll. They go to a lot of motor vehicle accidents. Which hospital they go to depends on the victim's condition, weather, fuel on the helo etc.

I wouldn't think this was unusual.

Not able to comment on the specific flight mentioned but when I was a flight physician on our local helicopter in the 1990s through to 2005 we flew to hospitals for a huge range of reasons.

Not just trauma From motor vehicle accidents. We transferred sick patients whose condition was too severe or just not covered for management by the small facility. Anything from pregnancy complications to heart attacks or strokes to psychiatric emergencies. Also picked up lost ( and found) bush walkers with not much wrong with them but needing a good medical exam before letting them go home.

 

so I guess the example posted could be anything.
