23rd July 2010

On 23rd July 2010 Coventry, City Centre Ring Road was closed as local Air Ambulance, Warwickshire & Northamptonshire Air Ambulance landed on it to rescue a patient following a serious accident.

The collision happened early evening and a female driver needed immediate medical attention when her car was involved in a road traffic collision (RTC). The 33 year old female suffered a serious arm injury and needed urgent hospital care.

The WNAA crew arrived in just four minutes of receiving the emergency call and landed on the closed ring road. The patient was in a great deal of pain so the crew administered pain relief before air lifting her to University Hospital Coventry & Warwickshire for further care.
