Over a period of 26 months, emergency medical contact was made with 63 sick or injured trawlermen from Hull and Grimsby who had been fishing in the fishing grounds around the Orkney Islands. The majority of accidents were due either to falls in heavy weather, entanglement with winching or fishing gear, or burns and scalds in the galley. Nearly 80 per cent of the episodes of illness which were seen might not have required the emergency service had the trawler crews been properly screened before going to sea, or trained in elementary first aid.
在26个月的时间里，与63名来自赫尔和格里姆斯比、在奥克尼群岛周围渔场捕鱼时生病或受伤的拖网渔船船员进行了紧急医疗联系。大多数事故要么是由于恶劣天气下的摔倒、与绞车或渔具缠绕，要么是厨房中的烧伤和烫伤。如果拖网渔船船员出海前经过适当筛查或接受基本急救培训，那么近80%所见到的发病情况可能并不需要紧急服务。
