The team were called to Harboro' Rocks today after a Twenty-Nine-year-old female climber had fallen around 8ft. The lady was in a lot of pain with a potentially limb-threatening ankle dislocation which was initially stabilised and she was given pain relief by the team. An East Midlands Ambulance Service (EMAS) crew and EMAS Paramedic arrived on scene, and the paramedic relocated her ankle.
She was carried by team stretcher to the road and handed over to the care of East Midlands Ambulance Service for transportation to hospital and further treatment.
