A visitor to the Waterfalls walk Trail (m, 61) became unwell descending steep steps on the trail after Beezley Falls. The casualty was checked by a team paramedic and administered oxygen until his condition stabilised. Whilst waiting for an ambulance, the team were informed that the ambulance had been diverted to another, more serious, incident on the Waterfalls Trail. As his condition had improved, and with a long wait for a second ambulance it was felt best for him to be conveyed in the family car to Airedale for a check up. Once he was safely on his way, team members diverted to the other call (see 23).
