The Sunshine Coast-based and Bundaberg-based LifeFlight helicopter crews today flew to the scene of a single-vehicle rollover in the Gympie region.
Both aircraft were tasked in the late afternoon by Retrieval Services Queensland.
The critical care LifeFlight doctors and Queensland Ambulance Service (QAS) flight paramedics worked with local QAS paramedics to treat two male patients in their late teens.
The first male patient suffered suspected spinal injuries and was airlifted by the LifeFlight Sunshine Coast-based helicopter to Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital for further treatment.
The second male patient suffered minor abrasions and QAS paramedics transported him by road to Gympie Hospital.
