Residents will have the chance to gain an insight into how CareFlight keeps the community safe at a special community event at Halekulani Bowling Club on Sunday, October 8.
The service operates with the support of Mounties Group.
On October 8, emergency rescue service, the Mounties Care CareFlight helicopter will land on the club grounds at 11am with residents invited to inspect the state-of-the-art helicopter and meet the CareFlight team behind the controls.
The Mounties Care CareFlight helicopter is an Airbus H145 rapid response helicopter committed to saving lives across Greater Sydney, the Central Coast and Blue Mountains.
It is one of the most advanced of its kind.
Not only can it be airborne and en-route to an incident in three minutes, it can also land in spaces as small as a tennis court.
“Our continuing partnership with CareFlight strengthens the Mounties Group ethos of improving the lives of our members and our community and this community event aims to showcase the wonderful work the CareFlight team does with locals,” Mounties Group President John Dean said.
“As one of the fastest services of its kind in the world, the helicopter delivers a specialist doctor, highly skilled intensive care paramedic and hospital-level equipment as close as possible to a patient anywhere in the Greater Sydney area within 15-20 minutes of a 000 call.”
The Mounties Care CareFlight Helicopter responds to accidents daily, varying from sporting accidents to motor vehicle collisions and house falls.
There will be lots of fun-filled activities for the entire family at the special event.
These will include live entertainment, face painting and an arts and craft section where kids can create a wooden CareFlight helicopter.
CareFlight CEO Mick Frewen says that the support Mounties Group has provided to CareFlight has been invaluable.
“Our partnership with Mounties Care is a true testament to the organisation’s unwavering commitment to care and health services,” he said.
“Their continued support over the last year has certainly allowed us to grow our services and save even more lives, and for that we are truly grateful.”
