22.01.2022 With the return of sunshine and good boating weather, Forster 20 was tasked twice today for assistance. At 1210 Marine Rescue Forster Tuncurry was called to as...sist a broken down vessel off Cockatoo Island with 4 people on board. The vessel was taken under tow by Forster 20 and returned safely to Forster Boat Harbour. Then at 1410 another call was received for a vessel having engine problems near Hamiltons Oysters with 8 people on board. Whilst not far from their destination they were fighting a strong tide and were close to shore. Forster 20 secured the tow and returned the vessel to Tuncurry boat ramp. Forster 20’s crew today (pictured) were Graeme Rudd, Ross Lund and Bryce Nicholls. Radio operators were Jeffry Smith and Daniel Mathews. Volunteers saving lives on the water.

19.01.2022 CASSIDY 13/10/2020 (TUNCURRY) - had an interesting rescue early this morning. This adult male koala was seen on the pier at Tuncurry. Cassidy is known to KIC ...having been in care twice previously. This is the second time he has been rescued from the pier area. Last year's fires have changed the movement pattern in his area. He weighed in at 8.3kgs and is in super condition. He has some abrasions to his face & is under observations at KIC. Thank you to those who phoned KIC to report him. Thank you also to Shane & his family for the pic & assistance to Christeen. See more

17.01.2022 ROAD OPEN - ARMIDALE ROAD One lane is now open on Armidale / Kempsey Road at Devil’s Nook. BACKGROUND... An existing slip site on Armidale Road commenced producing rock as a result of recent rain and has subsequently slipped on Monday 4 January 2020. The slip site is at ‘Devil’s Nook’, approximately 8.5km east of Bellbrook. The slip commenced producing rock of various sizes, some large, that crossed the road. Due to the risk presented to the public, the road was closed at around 2pm on Monday 4 January. Eventually, the slip site produced a large amount of rock that covered the entire road. Loosening the surface of the slip through waterbombing was successful and allowed crews to work throughout the weekend. Geotechnical Engineers, Specialist Contractors and Council Staff have worked tirelessly to successfully implement controls to enable safe passage of vehicles. The controls utilised include an earthen bund wall, concrete barriers and shipping containers with fill material placed within. The road now has one lane open under traffic lights. All general access vehicles previously permitted on this route can use this lane. DRIVE WITH CAUTION The site remains subject to change and could be closed in the event that staff or specialists raise concerns due to further wet weather or other factors. Council urges all passing motorists to remain within their vehicle and move through the site within the signposted speed limit, do not enter the site on foot or enter beyond the barriers that are in place.

11.01.2022 ... as discussed with Brian Beesley on the 2RE brekky show

11.01.2022 Currently there are 1,545 people isolated across the Mid Coast Council, Hastings Council and Kempsey Shire Council areas. Resupply is being organised for groce...ries and medical needs over the coming days. Do you live in an area that can become isolated? With an already saturated catchment, rain events can cause flooding quickly. It's a good idea to stock up on the basics in case of possible isolation in the coming weeks, but only if it is safe to do so. Remember - if it's flooded, forget it.

01.01.2022 We have already seen two snake bite cases in our practice this season, and we are only part way into Spring. As with all science related topics, we are constant...ly learning better and more advanced ways of doing things. This is also the case with snake bites. The current (best) information available, can be used for both human and animal snake bites. The ONLY difference is that a human is not as likely to bite you, when they are distressed or painful, so PLEASE keep this in mind. This article was written by Rob Timmings and provides lots of detailed and relevant information. It’s well worth the read! Rob runs a medical education business teaching nurses, doctors and paramedics - #ECT4Health 3000 bites are reported annually. 300-500 hospitalisations. 2-3 deaths annually. Average time to death is 12 hours. The urban myth that you are bitten in the yard and die before you can walk from your chook pen back to the house is a load of rubbish. While not new, the management of snake bite (like a flood/fire evacuation plan or CPR) should be refreshed each season. Let’s start with a BASIC OVERVIEW. There are five genus of snakes that will harm us (seriously) Browns, Blacks, Adders, Tigers and Taipans. All snake venom is made up of huge proteins (like egg white). When bitten, a snake injects some venom into the meat of your limb (NOT into your blood). This venom can not be absorbed into the blood stream from the bite site. It travels in a fluid transport system in your body called the lymphatic system (not the blood stream). Now this fluid (lymph) is moved differently to blood. Your heart pumps blood around, so even when you are lying dead still, your blood still circulates around the body. Lymph fluid is different. It moves around with physical muscle movement like bending your arm, bending knees, wriggling fingers and toes, walking/exercise etc. Now here is the thing. Lymph fluid becomes blood after these lymph vessels converge to form one of two large vessels (lymphatic trunks) which are connected to veins at the base of the neck. Back to the SNAKE BITE SITE. When bitten, the venom has been injected into this lymph fluid (which makes up the bulk of the water in your tissues). The only way that the venom can get into your blood stream is to be moved from the bite site in the lymphatic vessels. The only way to do this is to physically move the limbs that were bitten. Stay still!!! Venom can’t move if the victim doesn’t move. Stay still!! Remember people are not bitten into their blood stream. In the 1980s a technique called Pressure immobilisation bandaging was developed to further retard venom movement. It completely stops venom /lymph transport toward the blood stream. A firm roll bandage is applied directly over the bite site (don’t wash the area). TECHNIQUE. Three steps: keep them still Step 1: Apply a bandage over the bite site, to an area about 10cm above and below the bite. Step 2: Then using another elastic roller bandage, apply a firm wrap from Fingers/toes all the way to the armpit/groin. The bandage needs to be firm, but not so tight that it causes fingers or toes to turn purple or white. About the tension of a sprain bandage. Step 3: Splint the limb so the patient can’t walk or bend the limb. Do nots: Do not cut, incise or suck the venom. Do not EVER use a tourniquet Don’t remove the shirt or pants - just bandage over the top of clothing. Remember movement (like wriggling out of a shirt or pants) causes venom movement. DO NOT try to catch, kill or identify the snake!!! This is important. In hospital we NO LONGER NEED to know the type of snake; it doesn’t change treatment. 5 years ago we would do a test on the bite, blood or urine to identify the snake so the correct anti venom can be used. BUT NOW... we don’t do this. Our new Antivenom neutralises the venoms of all the 5 listed snake genus, so it doesn’t matter what snake bit the patient. Read that again- one injection for all snakes! Polyvalent is our one shot wonder, stocked in all hospitals, so most hospitals no longer stock specific Antivenins. Australian snakes tend to have 3 main effects in differing degrees. Bleeding - internally and bruising. Muscles paralysed causing difficulty talking, moving & breathing. Pain In some snakes severe muscle pain in the limb, and days later the bite site can break down forming a nasty wound. Allergy to snakes is rarer than winning lotto twice. FINAL TIPS Not all bitten people are envenomated and only those starting to show symptoms above are given antivenom. Did I mention to stay still. ~Rob Timmings Kingston/Robe Health Advisory Sweetpea Animal Hospital #snakebite
