RFDSA in big countries, it can be really difficult to get medical care to people living in isolated areas. In Australia, they have come up with a unique solution to the problem of providing healthcare to the 6.5 million square kilometres of the Australian Outback.
The Royal Flying Doctors Service of Australia (RFDSA) started in 1928 and today it offers healthcare from an aeroplane, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The doctors are ready at any time to fly out to remote farms and communities to treat patients, often with only basic equipment. Also, they often have to fly patients to the nearest hospital, sometimes in very dangerous weather conditions. The brave doctors of the RFDSA save hundreds of lives every year, and the service is essential to all the people who live in the vast Australian Outback.
