As team members were leaving the previous incident, they were notified of a possible cardiac arrest on the ascent of Bunster Hill.

An ambulance paramedic was already on scene and was joined by team members who remained in the area. On assessment, the situation was found to be less serious than initially reported, and additional team members were not required.

The casualty, a male, was packaged in a casualty bag to provide warmth and protection before being loaded onto a team stretcher and evacuated via a wheeled carry down the steps to waiting ambulance crews.
