The Sandpiper Bag is perfect to respond to road trauma. Unpredicted, unexpected road trauma is potentially part of any rural doctor’s working life. Across the years I have attended to many rural motor vehicle and motorcycle accidents involving severe injuries.”
Medical equipment is difficult to access in rural Australia compared to larger metropolitan cities, and rural Australians are more vulnerable to injury and deaths in emergencies. “It reflects the inevitable gap between ambulance response times and distances in rural locations, and the necessity to provide immediate care in a trauma.”
“I really appreciate receiving this excellent kit, it was a touching gesture of recognition at a difficult time for my community.”
I feel vastly more comfortable driving around rural Australia with the Sandpiper bag in the car. Some would say it’s a bit superstitious but with the right equipment, you hope it acts as a charm to ward off the need for having it! Because there is nothing worse than an event happening and not being equipped for it.”
