A cruise ship passenger was airlifted to the Singapore General Hospital (SGH) by the Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF) on Friday (Dec 26).
The RSAF’s search-and-rescue unit Rescue 10 was activated on Friday morning to evacuate a passenger onboard a cruise ship who required urgent medical attention, the RSAF said in a Facebook post at 1.14pm on the same day.
“The patient was safely evacuated to SGH for treatment and was reported to be conscious and in a stable condition,” the post read.
The rescue was coordinated by the Maritime Rescue Coordination Centre under the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore.
