Medevac in Houston Ship Channel
The US Coast Guard medevaced a 37-year-old man from the 'Terrapin Island' on Oct 3, 2022 in Houston. Coast Guard Sector Houston-Galveston command center watchstanders received a medevac request at 9:26 a.m. from the captain of the dredging vessel, stating a crewman had severely injured his hand and was in need of assistance in the Houston Ship Channel northeast of the Texas City Dike. Watchstanders consulted with the duty flight surgeon, who recommended a medevac. A Coast Guard Station Galveston 45-foot boat launched to assist, brought the injured man aboard and transferred him to awaiting emergency medical services personnel at the Galveston Yacht Basin in Galveston, Texas. The patient was in stable condition.
