John Flynn

John Flynn was an Australian Anglican minister who founded the Royal Flying Doctor Service in 1928. This organization provides urgent medical care and advice to people living in remote and rural areas of Australia, where healthcare facilities are scarce. Flynn's vision was to ensure that even those far from cities could access emergency medical services quickly through aircraft. His work greatly improved healthcare access for rural Australians and is considered a pioneering effort in mobile medical services. Flynn's dedication to serving isolated communities has left a lasting legacy in Australian healthcare.
