An early start to the day when North West Ambulance Service alerted us to a cyclist who had fallen off his bike and sustained head and hip injuries. A full callout was swiftly made due to the nature of the injuries. Once on scene the team Casualty Carers assessed and treated the injuries whilst awaiting the land ambulance. After a handover, team members returned to base and restocked the vehicles ready for the next tasking. We wish the cyclist a swift recovery.
Incident started at 06:31 and ended at 09:27 making 2.9 hrs in total. There were 14 Wasdale team members involved and the incident occured at NY211011. Total rescuer hours: 41
