12/26/2020 Burn Victim Medevac at Genet School.
On late afternoon of December 26th the East Greenbush Fire Dept and East Greenbush Police Dept responded to Genet School
to set up a landing zone for LifeFlight 71. They were in route to pick up a burn victim for transport to the burn center at Westchester Medical Center.
|
Cars 1, 2, 3, and 4, along with Rescue 11, Engine 8, and Utility 11 responded to the Genet Elementary School to assist with the landing zone and patient transfer.
|
While the paramedic crew from LifeNet was working on their patient transfer, the LifeNet pilot took some time to hold a brief, ad hoc refresher
for our members with regards to the emergency shutdown procedures for the helicopter. Our members wish to thank the pilot for his time and guidance today.
|
A special thank you to the C-Line Patrol Division and the C-Line Communications Division (both from the East Greenbush Police Department)
for their assistance at the scene and in coordinating the radio traffic with LifeNet.
