On Monday afternoon, just after 17:00, our Centurion crew responded to a cycling accident in Kort Street, Eldoraigne.
A female cyclist fell from her bicycle while riding with her husband and sustained moderate injuries during the incident.
The patient was assessed and treated by our crew on scene before being transported to a nearby hospital by Emergency Medical Solutions ambulance in a stable condition under advanced paramedical care.
We would like to thank Emergency Medical Solutions for their assistance, as well as the various Good Samaritans from the local community who stopped to assist and support the patient while awaiting the arrival of emergency services.
