Incident report

We were called, along with colleagues from Edale Mountain Rescue team to assist a 16 year old female with a severe asthma attack inside the Headstone Tunnel on the Monsal Trail.

The casualty was looked after by team members and an East Midlands Ambulance Service Paramedic and kept warm in Mobile 2 while waiting for the EMAS ambulance to arrive on scene.

Asthma can be an extremely serious problem if not treated correctly so we were pleased to have helped the casualty and her party this afternoon.
