The Royal Flying Doctor Service is asking Central Queenslanders to dig deep and donate what they can to help expand its services.
The RFDS on Monday announced statewide infrastructure plans for a new aeromedical base to
service regional, rural and remote Queensland.
The new, built-for-purpose base at Mount Isa will replace the existing, 60-year-old facility and
allow Flying Doctor crews to deliver even greater levels of patient care.
Royal Flying Doctor Service (Queensland Section) chief executive officer Meredith Staib
said the service was calling on the assistance of its loyal supporters to support the build.
“The Flying Doctor is now calling on the help of its supporters to raise $3.2 million to support the build of a new base,” she said.
