Swift help for victims of an accident in Glasgow or elsewhere in Scotland

Anyone suffering an accident in Glasgow is likely to be treated for their injuries no differently than if they have been hurt in any other large city in the UK and can hope to have the services of an ambulance, skilled medical staff and the facilities of major hospitals within easy reach.

But for the thousands of Scots who live in small towns, villages and on isolated crofts, medical services are not always so easily available with doctors having to drive many miles to reach patients and self-sufficient communities relying on district nurses and small health centres.

However, that is changing with the expansion of the flying doctor helicopter and aircraft service based at Glasgow airport which enables emergency medical treatment to reach victims much quicker and, if necessary, airlift them to hospital for specialist treatment.

Although military and RAF helicopters have been used for some years to help with rescues in the mountainous regions of Scotland, such as for victims of climbing accidents, the doubling of capacity of the Scottish Ambulance Service air missions increases survival rates for those involved in other accidents, including car crashes, in remote areas and medical emergencies.

Paramedics and experienced accident and emergency doctors travel in the aircraft which are able to reach most parts of Scotland from Glasgow in less than an hour.

Now, those who live in the more rural areas of the country need no longer feel they are at a disadvantage when it comes to treatment, compared with those who have suffered from an accident in Glasgow.
