The Torres Strait, off the coast of Queensland, is one of Australia's most unusual environments to work in as a paramedic. The region is home to a series of islands scattered over a stretch of ocean spanning 48,000 square kilometres. This initiative is training close to 50 cadets to fly rescue helicopters to boost Indigenous representation in ambulance services.
