Incident report

Buxton and Edale Mountain Rescue Teams both responded to a call out to Lose Hill where a visiting walker had been reported as being unconscious. The Derbyshire Leicester and Rutland Air Ambulance was also called and arrived at the scene first.  On examination, the aircraft doctor found the casualty to be less seriously ill than first reported, the female patient having regained full consciousness.

Following a full assessment by the medics, the casualty was carefully escorted down from the hill by rescue team members and returned with her partner to their holiday property nearby.
