Today we had an extra special visitor to the base!
Jason was flown by Life Flight last month for a medical emergency. Coming to the base with his family, it was a happy surprise to meet the same crew who flew him that day!
Awesome to see your recovery journey, Jason π€
Happy Friday from our Air Ambulance's furriest crew member!
Pilot the cat loves to greet our crew whenever they land at Masterton Airport to make sure everything is tip top (and maybe get some treats along the way) πΎ
Our Westpac Rescue Helicopter flew down to Christchurch after responding to a sporting injury last night.
Landing on the Hospital helipad, the patient was swiftly transferred.
Thanks to your support we were able to quickly respond, giving the patient the best chance for recovery.
