High stretcher lift, from a recent burn area, yesterday. Great to be working with all the great COSAR members, BCEHS PCP and ALS paramedics, and West Kelowna Fire. Hope the patients make a fast recovery! #bell412 #bell412ep #rescue #sar #vernonsearch

Flying into the long weekend!
On rescues, most people have no idea how many people and groups it takes to have a safe mission. On the mission last week, we had RCMP, BCEHS, Conservation Officer, Shuswap SAR, Vernon SAR, AROHWS, Alpine, and several bystanders and camp staff. Many hands make light work and brings everyone home safely. #sar #vernonsearchandrescue #arohws #rescue #shuswap #rcmp #bcehs #shuswapsearchandrescue #helicopter #bcadventuresmart #bell412 #alpinehelicopters
A huge thank you to @alpinehelicopters and @alpineaerotech and Infinion Engineering to helping make this happen! We now have a Transport Canada approved Stryker stretcher mount in the AROHWS rescue helicopter. #sar #vernonsearchandrescue #rescue #arohws #okanagan #searchandrescue #helicopterrescue #alpinehelicopters #bell412ep #cosar #stretcher
