A U.S. member was paragliding in Colombia when she experienced a rough landing and injured her ankle. She was examined and diagnosed with a broken ankle, specifically a fracture of the left tibial malleolus, with a recommendation for surgery to repair the damage. Global Rescue confirmed that the local treatment team would not be able to perform the surgery for a couple of days and recommended the member return immediately to her home for her surgery. Global Rescue arranged for an expedited return flight with business class seating and ground transportation. She arrived safely back at home in Washington where she followed up with her orthopedic physician for surgery.
