A man aged in his 30s has been flown to hospital in a stable condition after he crashed and fell head first while riding with a group on a dedicated training track in Ourimbah this morning.
The Mounties Care CareFlight Helicopter was tasked by NSW Ambulance shortly after 9:30am and landed in the grounds of the university at Ourimbah about 200 metres from the accident scene. NSW Ambulance paramedics worked alongside CareFlight’s medical team to treat the man at the scene.
CareFlight’s specialist doctor and NSW Ambulance critical care paramedic performed a clinical assessment of the patient and undertook precautions for potential spinal injuries.
The man was flown to Royal North Shore Hospital in a stable condition.
