Demand for our services has continued its steep upward trajectory in 2023 as we continue to take the finest aeromedical care to the furthest corners of our great State.
RFDS WA crews transferred 9,944 patients in the past financial year, averaging 27 patient retrievals each day.
The number of patients classed as priority one (urgent life-saving medical attention) has increased by over 11 per cent, year on year.
Supporting the Flying Doctor helps to cover the cost of specialist medical equipment which allows our fleet of aircraft to operate as intensive care units in the sky. For patients like Steve, this equipment can mean the difference between life and death.
​​​​​​​It is the generosity of the community that allows us to continue to deliver the finest care to the furthest corners of WA.​​​​​​​
