On Wednesday 10 December at 21:43, both fire engines from Thame Fire Station – were mobilised to a serious road traffic collision (RTC) on the A4129 between Thame and Kingsey, near the Windmill Road junction.
On arrival, crews found one female casualty who was unable to free herself from the vehicle due to her injuries.
The first few minutes at an RTC are critical for the safety of everyone involved, including the emergency services on scene. The fire crews immediately established safe systems of work, prepared rescue equipment, and gathered vital information to share with ambulance teams. At the same time, two firefighters were able to focus on providing dedicated immediate emergency care to the casualty.
Shortly after, a fire engine from Slade Park Fire Station arrived, along with Thames Valley Police , South Central Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust, and Thames Valley Air Ambulance.
Working closely with ambulance crews, firefighters safely extricated the casualty and handed her over to waiting medical teams. The scene was then passed to our police colleagues for investigation and management.
