LifeFlight airlifts girl after serious car crash

The Sunshine Coast-based LifeFlight aeromedical crew today airlifted a young girl to hospital after a car rolled down a hill and crashed in the Sunshine Coast region.

The LifeFlight helicopter was tasked at 8.45am to a private property and landed on a hill near the incident scene.

Queensland Ambulance Service (QAS) paramedics and Queensland Fire Department (QFD) firefighters met the helicopter after extricating the primary school-aged child and two other people from the vehicle.

The LifeFlight critical care doctor and QAS flight paramedic worked with local QAS paramedics to treat the girl for life-threatening head, abdominal and leg injuries.

She was flown to Queensland Children’s Hospital for further treatment.
