Scarborough and Ryedale Mountain rescue Team were back in Goathland again yesterday for their 81st rescue of 2021.
The team were called to Thomason Foss Waterfall by the Yorkshire Ambulance Service NHS Trust to reports of a 69 year old female who had fallen down a bank close to the base of the waterfall sustaining head and lower leg injuries.
The team say:
"Upon arrival we found a relative had dressed a wound to her leg and was caring for the patient. After clinical assessment by the team and a crew from Yorkshire Ambulance Service we splinted her leg and transferred her to a team stretcher before carrying over the stream and hauling up steep ground to the road using a rope system. At this point the ambulance crew took over and transported her to definitive medical care. We had ten team members deployed for three and a half hours and are grateful for the assistance of a crew from North Yorkshire Fire & Rescue Service Whitby Station."
