about us

 
 

CQ Rescue Health Services is a subsidiary organisation of Central Queensland Helicopter Rescue Service (CQ Rescue) and all profits from drug and alcohol testing are used to fund the region's rescue helicopter.

CQ Rescue Health Services is an umbrella organisation of Central Queensland Helicopter Rescue Service Ltd and all proceeds from our drug and alcohol testing service, as well as health screening, are used to fund the region’s rescue helicopter. The service was established in 2010 and has since fostered very strong partnerships with businesses throughout Mackay, the Whitsundays and Bowen Basin.

 
It is safe to say of almost all missions flown, none of our patients ever thought they would need our service but then again, who can predict what the future holds and whether you, your family or employees will one day need to be rescued.
— Ian Rowan, CEO
