On Call in Action
On Call International helps travelers with emergency travel assistance everyday. Here is a true story from a recent incident.
A woman was enjoying an adrenaline-packed excursion in Mexico with her husband when she
lost control of her ATV and crashed into a rock wall. The local hospital was not capable
of treating her multiple broken ribs and the hematoma on her lung. She needed an immediate
evacuation back to her hometown in Virginia for long-term treatment.
On Call International evacuated the woman by air ambulance, with her husband at her side.
Soon after, she was safe at home with her primary doctors, receiving the treatment needed
for long-term recovery.
