“Every 62 minutes, a LifeFlight aircraft rescues critically injured or seriously ill patients from 10 locations across Asia Pacific. We fly 24/7, 365 days a year,“ Amy Agius explained.
“Everyone deserves access to life saving care, no matter where they live. Our aircraft are flying intensive care units. They are staffed by world class medial specialists and they are fitted out with cutting edge medical technology.
“We have more than 180 critical care doctors, equipped to handle any emergency from remote rescue operations to medical evacuations.“
Amy joined LifeFlight in March, bringing a wealth of experience and a passion for making a difference in the community.
She holds a Diploma in Professional Fundraising and has dedicated the last eight years to working in the charity sector.
“My focus has been on health promotion, education and awareness initiatives. I am excited to be with LifeFlight. We are the largest, most advanced aero-medical service in the southern hemisphere,“ she said.
“I have spent the last few months connecting with supporters and community groups that play such a vital role in sustaining medical helicopters in our region.
“I’m looking forward to meeting people that are new to LifeFlight and are interested in learning about ways they can support us and become involved. I’m also very eager to meet all the current supporters who have been with LifeFlight for many years.
“I’m excited to build on these connections. Fostering a strong sense of community is very important. It’s so inspiring and it is a privilege to be part of LifeFlight. When we unite as a community, our collective impact can be truly transformative.”
