Air Ambulance carries out two missions in two days

The Air Corps says it has been involved in two Air Ambulance missions in the past two days.

The Defence Forces says a child was brought to Our Lady's Hospital Crumlin from England on Friday and on Saturday a helicopter flew vitally needed organs to the relevant hospitals.

The Air Corps operates a 24-hour, year-round stand-by service to cover a wide range of possible needs, including Air Ambulance for the HSE.
