Royal Flying Doctor Service - Queensland Section

Royal Flying Doctor Service - Queensland Section The Royal Flying Doctor Service (Queensland Section) has been saving lives in regional, rural and remote communities for 96 years.

In addition to aeromedical retrievals, the RFDS also delivers essential primary and preventative healthcare services. Established in Queensland in 1928 by the Reverend John Flynn, the RFDS has grown to become the world’s largest and most comprehensive aeromedical organisation. Today the RFDS delivers more than 370,000 episodes of patient care across Australia every year – equivalent to assisting s

omeone every two minutes. In Queensland, the RFDS provides healthcare services over an area of 1.73 million square kilometres from nine strategically located bases in Cairns, Townsville, Mount Isa, Charleville, Longreach, Roma, Rockhampton, Bundaberg and Brisbane. These services are delivered via a fleet of 20 medically equipped aeromedical aircraft. And with some of the world’s most highly trained and skilled aviation and medical staff, the RFDS is incredibly well positioned to uphold our promise to deliver the finest care to the furthest corner of the state.

It’s not every day your local Queensland Fire Department Rural Fire Service offers you a lift into town and back, but our Primary Health Care team were more than happy to accept on their trip to Ravenswood.

Community spirit at its best. 🚒✈️

Somebunny is working this weekend 🐰💙✈️

Easter looks a little different for our RFDS teams, who remain on shift providing the finest care to the furthest corners of Queensland. 💙

Over the long weekend, many of our crew across the state will continue flying and caring for patients and communities, often spending the holidays away from family and loved ones.

With the support of Woolworths, our teams working this long weekend have been able to enjoy some Easter goodies 🍫. A simple thank you to the people who keep RFDS services running, even over the holidays. 🙌

Cruising above Queensland's countryside to provide the finest care to those who need it most.

We're unsure of the date of this photo. Are there any aviation enthusiasts out there who could help? 🤔
