It’s been a busy period for the all weather Arranmore RNLI volunteer crew as they have responded to three medical evacuations since Friday evening.
On Friday, Monday and just yesterday patients requiring medical assessment were transported by lifeboat to Burtonport where they are met by ambulance for further transfer to Letterkenny University Hospital.
In a statement Arranmore RNLI coxswain Jimmy Early said the crews were glad to be able to assist the community with this vital service.
