The Guyana Defence Force, today, successfully completed a Medical Evacuation (MEDEVAC) mission from the Suddie Public Hospital in Region 2 (Pomeroon-Supenaam), following an urgent request from the Ministry of Health.
The aircraft piloted by Command Pilot Lieutenant Colonel Anson Weeks and Co-pilot Captain Dwight Bonus departed the Playfield, Base Camp Ayanganna at 1326 with two Civilian medical staff and GDF Grade 2 Medic Akeem Martin for the MEDEVAC.
The young patient only hours old delivered by Cesarean Section and suffering from respiratory distress required advance medical care. She arrived at Base Camp Ayanganna at 1430 hours and was swiftly boarded into the waiting GDF ambulance for transport to the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation.
The GDF remains committed to supporting national emergency response efforts and extending critical assistance to citizens across Guyana.
