    RE-RELEASE: STARS Origins

    STARS founder Dr. Greg Powell passed away very recently, leaving behind an incredible legacy of improving pre-hospital trauma care throughout Western Canada. He was instrumental in STARS launching in 1985, and now, more than 60,000 missions later, we're reflecting on that remarkable accomplishment. We're releasing a bonus episode we originally published in Season 1 of Mission Ready, focusing on how STARS began and how it grew.

    Transfer of Care

    The industrial riding lawnmower that had been sitting on top of Draidyn Wollmann is finally removed and he's whisked off to the STARS helicopter running nearby. His mom, who is also a first responder, has shown poise and strength and is allowed to join the flight to the city trauma centre. While en route, the STARS air medical crew continues to perform critical care on Draidyn, and hospital staff stands ready to take over. Watch the STARS flight paramedic talk about his glimmer of hope in a bonus video at https://stars.ca/missionready.

    STARS on Scene

    A STARS helicopter lands near the bustling scene where Draidyn Wollmann's life is ebbing away from beneath the cutting deck of an industrial lawnmower. Skilled air medical crew members are stunned by what they see but lean on their robust training to quickly begin transfusing blood into Draidyn's only intact arm and taking over his breathing. Both STARS pilots help in whatever way they can. Watch all four STARS crew members talk about their initial reactions in a bonus video at https://stars.ca/missionready.

    First Response

    As young Draidyn Wollmann fights for life beneath the cutting deck of a stalled industrial mower, emergency responders rush to his aid and STARS is dispatched from more than 60 km away. A ground paramedic soon discovers that a blade from the mower is embedded in the boy's chest and an arm is mostly severed. Responders wonder how they're going to remove the mower without causing further damage. Watch the ground paramedic and STARS transport physician discuss the challenge in a bonus video at https://stars.ca/missionready.
