The Toowoomba-based LifeFlight aeromedical crew today airlifted an elderly woman to hospital after she fell from a horse.
The rescue chopper was tasked to the Somerset region at around 11am after the woman, aged in her 80s, fell while riding.
The crew landed the helicopter in a paddock near the incident on a private property.
A LifeFlight critical care doctor and flight paramedic joined local Queensland Ambulance Service (QAS) paramedics to stabilise the patient before she was flown to Toowoomba Hospital in a stable condition.
