Medevac off Port Alfred
On May 31, 2014, at 9.38 a,m. the NSRI Port Alfred volunteer sea rescue duty crew was activated following a request from the "Marcarolina" which was en route from Buenos Aires to the East via Durban reporting a sailor onboard suspected to be suffering hepatitis. The Department of Health and the SAMSA (South African Maritime Safety Authority) were notified and it was authorised for the patient to be brought to shore and transported to hospital. The lifeboat "Lotto Challenger" was launched and rendezvoused with the ship three nautical miles off shore in calm sea conditions with a three meter swell. On arrival on-scene NSRI rescue medics were transferred aboard and medical treatment was rendered to the semi conscious patient, a 55 year old Pinoy, and he was secured to a trauma board and lowered to our sea rescue craft and brought to shore where a Gardmed ambulance has transported the patient to hospital for further treatment.
