A 29-year-old woman was injured yesterday, Monday, after falling on rocks along the path to Playa del Ancón, a remote black-sand beach in the municipality of La Orotava, Tenerife.
The Emergency Services Coordination Centre (CECOES) received a 1-1-2 alert reporting that a person required medical assistance following a fall in a difficult-to-access location, so the necessary emergency resources were immediately dispatched to the location given.
Firefighters carried out the rescue, carrying the injured woman on a stretcher to an ambulance waiting in a more accessible area. Medical personnel assessed her condition and confirmed she had suffered facial and leg injuries, so she was taken by ambulance to the University Hospital of the Canary Islands for further treatment.
The Local Police and Civil Protection officers assisted in the operation to ensure emergency teams could safely reach the scene and carry out the rescue.
