Falls Creek Ski Patrol

WHAT TO DO IF YOU NEED HELP FROM SKI PATROL

  1. Call 5758 3502, OR
  2. Ask a resort worker such as a lift attendant to call Ski Patrol.

Note that Ski Patrol operates from 8:00am to 5:30pm every day the lifts are operating during the snow season. If you require emergency first aid assistance outside of these hours, call 000 and request an ambulance.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SEE AN INJURED PERSON

If you see an injured person on the mountain, try to make the scene as safe as possible to help prevent anyone else getting hurt. Take a pair of skis and stick the tails into the snow to create a cross or lay a snowboard upside-down several metres uphill of the injured person. This will assist Ski Patrol in locating you and alert other skiers and snowboarders to keep clear of the injured person.
