Was this a trauma? It makes no sense to fly someone out of pal park considering how close you are to HUMC. A burn victim to Barnabas I could understand, but based on the fact that this was an MVC I would expect it would've been faster to just transport to HUMC.
Sorry, I don't recall any other details about it and I'm not sure if they did go to HUMC. NorthSTAR is rare in this area because we are so close to HUMC.
I was at that call. It was a pedestrian struck by auto in the shoprite parking lot. The lady who was transported was pinned to a column and i am pretty sure her legs were hanging by a thread. The helicopter landed a few feet from the scene.
Maybe the went to UMD? and I'd assume it was a trauma, but there could have definitely been burns..
