Do any hems operators in the world have the capability to accommodate 2 x stretchers?
As a cfa vol i attended a motorcycle prang in Victoria; rider and pillion passenger versus truck.
Two hems arrived, one for each patient.
One headed north the other south so the couple unded up 100 miles apart.
Plenty of mica support on the ground so i wondered if a larger heli could have accomidated both (assuming the two medicos were capable of monitoring both patients).
I realise the long term cost effectivness of doing it either way depends on how the figures stack up. Are there many instances where two patients need transport?
