You’ve got no idea what you’ll come across in your day-to-day life, so you might be the reason why someone actually survives if they ever suffer some type of traumatic incident," past patient Zach Nightingale. Zach’s right leg was amputated when he came off a motorcycle on 16 December 2017. Dozens of Toowoomba and Brisbane medical professionals kept Zach Nightingale alive, but it was the quick thinking of the first two people by his side that saved him.

Zach is now a LifeFlight patient ambassador, has shared his rescue story with Queenslanders and is a motivational speaker. He's also an advocate for First Minutes Matter, an emergency trauma training program offered by LifeFlight, as he knows first-hand how learning the skills taught in these workshops could help save someone's life after a traumatic incident. First Minutes Matter was developed by LifeFlight critical care doctors to teach you practical skills to manage life-threatening events, like car crashes, farming accidents, stroke and snake bites. You can join a scheduled workshop or host your own, delivered by LifeFlight's experienced educators. Learn more at lifeflight.org.au/first-minutes-matter.
