A March council worker in her 50s collapsed earlier today and required care from a Magpas team.

The incident, which happened at around 12.43pm, saw doctors Andy Lindsay and Ali Hieatt, and paramedic Jo Lambert arrive in March via a rapid response vehicle to treat a woman who had collapsed.

The Magpas team assessed and anaesthetised her at the scene, giving the woman A&E level care.

They accompanied her by land ambulance to Addenbrooke’s Hospital where she was in a stable but critical condition.

An EEAST paramedic crew was also in attendance.
