Medevac off Cherbourg
On Oct 17, 2020 at 11:36 a.m., the CROSS Jobourg was alerted by the Guernsey Coast Guard after a crew member of the 'Maersk Gairloch' had fallen ill. The ship was 14 miles off Cherbourg-en-Cotentin (50). The captain of the 'Maersk Gailorch' informed the CROSS that he had already had a medical teleconsultation with the Telemedical Maritime Assistance Service (TMAS) of Cuxhaven who recommended a medical evacuation. The CROSS then initiated a conference call with the maritime medical consultation center in Toulouse and the maritime medical coordination service in Le Havre, and the need of a medical evacuation was confirmed. The CROSS tasked a Caiman helicopter of the French Navy base in Maupertus with a medical team from the medical center of the army health service in Querqueville on board to carry out the evacuation. At 1:20 p.m., the medical team was dropped off aboard the 'Maersk Gairloch' where they performed first aid and conditioning the patient. He was hoisted by the helicopter and then dropped off in Cherbourg at 1:51 p.m. An ambulance transferred the patient to the CHU de Cherbourg for further care.
