The Sunshine Coast-based LifeFlight aeromedical crew yesterday airlifted a woman to hospital after she was struck by a cow west of Maleny.
The LifeFlight helicopter was tasked at 2.30pm by Retrieval Services Queensland and landed in a clearing near the scene.
The LifeFlight critical care doctor and QAS flight paramedic worked with local QAS paramedics to treat the woman, aged in her 70s, for significant head, leg and hand injuries.
The patient was flown to Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital.
