On Wednesday 8th July, the team were contacted to assist our colleagues at the Northwest Ambulance Service (NWAS) in helping extricate a lady who had a suspected hip injury from a fall.
Mobile 2 and team members were mobilised to Barnoldswick, where, on arrival, they met with the medical team, and after working together to decide on the best plan for the ambulance, we stretchered the lady using the bell stretcher and big wheel to get her safely to the awaiting ambulance.
We wish the lovely lady a speedy recovery.
