| Weekend Wrap Up |

As the windy weather blew far and wide through CQ, so too did #RACQ #CapRescue.

Over just two days, the #Rescue300 crew attended tasks in 4 of the 6 main Council Shires covered by our life saving service. We’re here for you, because a big region needs a fast response.

#RACQ #CapRescue was tasked this afternoon to Shoalwater Bay for a Primary incident involving a woman falling from a vessel.

It is believed the patient in her 50s suffered suspected lacerations to her head after impacting with the propellers of a tender.

Upon arrival of #Rescue300, it was determined landing was possible and a winch retrieval was not required.

The on-board medical crew then stabilised the patient and she was transported to Rockhampton Hospital.

| Primary Task |

Late Thursday afternoon #RACQ #CapRescue was tasked to attend a teenage female suffering from a suspected lower limb dislocation.

#Rescue300 arrived at North West Island to be met by a group on a school camp from South East Queensland.

It was reported they were playing on the beach when the patient suffered the injury.

She was treated on scene by the Flight Doctor and Critical Care Paramedic with the dislocation being relocated back into place.

RACQ CapRescue then transported the patient to Rockhampton Hospital in a stable condition for further scans and treatment.
