27 Tiffany Rd - Units responded for a male with a possible broken arm, and upon arrival it was discovered that he had fallen 10-15 feet off a roof, and had sustained an injury to his shoulder. The decision was made on scene by a crew-member of Ambulance 5526 to fly the patient to a trauma center rather than transport him in an ambulance. NCPD Helicopter 5 responded quickly and met the ambulance at the Sagamore Hill Preserve. Once transferred into the helicopter, the patient was quickly taken to Nassau University Medical Center for evaluation and treatment.
