Remote Rescue
To Sonny, it’s being airlifted to safety when disaster strikes.
Meet Sonny — a lad struck down by serious injury at home on a remote NT cattle station, far from medical aid.
His injury threatened to change his life forever.

It was crucial for Sonny to receive urgent, expert care. Every second counted as he was airlifted to Alice Springs Hospital for emergency surgery.
