QAS INSIGHT | Summer 2017-18 edition

Thank you

I’d like to write a sincere thankyou to the ambulance officers who came to my aid in September on the Gold Coast. The paramedics were Kelly (Ward) and Rebekah (Munn) and there was also a lovely student, but unfortunately, I cannot recall her name. I would just like to thank them for their professional attention and for their wonderful bedside manner. I was so relieved to see them when I could finally open my eyes past the pain I was experiencing at the time. Nothing short of ‘Angels in Green’ as far as I’m concerned. It was my first ambulance experience in my 53 years of life, and hopefully my last. I am truly grateful to them for making me feel so comfortable after agreeing to let my husband call for assistance on the night. I couldn’t breathe properly and I was in a great deal of pain. They were all just amazing. I’ll always remember feeling so safe with them, I was clearly in very good hands. They eventually took me to the hospital after administering pain relief and checking me over for absolutely everything. My sincerest thanks yet again. Truly grateful for their excellent service. Lyn, Willowvale Thankyou Mitch (Ware), Brendan (Schultz), Corey (Wakefield) and Ben (Darling-Filby) for making Mia and myself feel so safe and confident on our Sunday afternoon and evening journeys. Mia had surgery that night at St Andrew’s and is recovering really well. We feel very grateful to have had such great guys to help us out on such a tough afternoon. I know many situations they attend are a lot more testing or fulfilling but it meant the world to us. Please find attached a thank

All is going OK thanks to your skilful and compassionate attention in transporting me to the Kingaroy Hospital.
