RACQ CareFlight Rescue is a Queensland based community helicopter rescue service that's helped more than 15,000 people.  Their dedicated crews, including a critical care doctor, are on standby 24/7 ready to help.

We acklowledge RACQ Careflight. 

Here are some interesting facts and figures about Careflight:

  • After nearly three decades, RACQ CareFlight’s biggest supporters are still the communities of southern QLD which contribute almost half of the service’s funding. 
     
  • Every year RACQ CareFlight’s iconic blue and yellow choppers help hundreds of sick and injured patients. 
     
  • A critical care doctor is carried on board every RACQ CareFlight mission 24 hours a day, seven days a week. 
     
  • RACQ CareFlight’ South West operation employs a group of specifically trained Toowoomba based professionals who work on board the helicopter on weekends and school holidays.  
     
  • RACQ CareFlight has a day time response as little as 6 minutes. 
     
  • An RACQ CareFlight mission costs in excess of $10,000 at no direct cost to patients. 
     
  • RACQ CareFlight established its part-time Toowoomba operation three years ago in response to the community’s consistent plea for a local service.  

  • Over the past three years RACQ CareFlight South West has provided medical intervention to more than 350 patients - a significant figure for a part time service that only operates 150 days per year.  
  • One year after the service was established, CareFlight purchased a twin-engine IFR helicopter specifically for the Toowoomba Base which continues to service the region on weekends, school and public holidays.
