Community Talks
Book a CareFlight presentation for your next community meeting or event.
Is your social club or society keen to hear from local experts or organisations doing great things for their community?
Would they like to learn how our aeromedical teams save lives every day? Or about a world-leading Australian charity started by volunteers in 1986?
Perhaps you are looking for a good cause to partner with to give back to the community?
CareFlight’s Community Talks program provides talented public speakers to present at your next local community or club meeting or event. Our presenters include both local CareFlight staff and volunteers – all natural public speakers who have received additional training in speaking on behalf of CareFlight. All talks are tailored to suit your event and the interests of your community.
Content of a CareFlight Community Talk
Talks can range from 30-60 minutes plus an opportunity for questions and general discussion on the topics raised. Our speakers can also incorporate a display of images and video if audio-visual facilities can be provided.
Talks focus on the frontline work, realities and human stories of CareFlight’s work saving lives around Australia, including a focus on:
- The history of CareFlight
- The realities of caring for patients following traumatic accidents, injuries and medical episodes in urban, regional and remote Australia
- Stories of recent CareFlight missions and the people involved
- Our aircraft and aircrews
- CareFlight’s commitment to community education and trauma care training
