Woman Injured in Motor Vehicle Accident


Woman Injured in Motor Vehicle Accident

The BayTrust Rescue Helicopter was dispatched at 3 pm on Thursday 28 December, to a motor vehicle accident at Ngawaro, north of Rotorua. A vehicle carrying 5 people rolled down the road, ejecting a 31-year-old female.

Local fire and ambulance crews established a land area for the rescue helicopter. The woman was stablised by the onboard paramedic before she was airlifted to Waikato Hospital in a critical condition.

Philips Search and Rescue Trust (PSRT) is a charitable organisation, operating rescue helicopters throughout the Central North Island. Philips Search and Rescue Trust relies on support from principal sponsors and community donations. Special thanks to Rotorua’s principal sponsor, BayTrust. This crucial financial support ensures our rescue helicopters can continue to bring life-saving equipment, rescue personnel and trauma-trained medics directly to the patient.
