The Bailiwick’s marine ambulance has been deployed 4 times in 3 days, responding to emergency calls in Herm and Sark.
Flying Christine III was sent to Sark twice on Thursday for emergency medical calls, once in the afternoon and then again on Thursday night.
The marine ambulance was back in action on Friday evening, with an urgent call to Herm.
The fourth case was just before 8o’clock on Saturday morning, with a call to Sark.
In all cases patients were assessed and treated by paramedic-led medical teams and later transferred to the Princess Elizabeth Hospital.
The Flying Christine is a charitable asset, funded through a combination of charges, sponsorship and fundraising. Ambulance & Rescue service would like to thank the volunteer boat crew for responding to these incidents.
