The female doctor bounces down the rock face for several meters before finally coming to a rest. Both the injured hiker as well as the doctor were immediately treated at the scene, and neither was considered to be in life-threatening condition.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Related: <\/strong><em><a href=\"https:\/\/snowbrains.com\/3-americans-face-fines-of-e1000-at-cortina-dampezzo-for-breaking-these-3-italian-laws\/\"><strong>3 Americans Face Fines of \u20ac1,000 at Cortina d\u2019Ampezzo Breaking These 3 Italian Laws<\/strong><\/a><\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>The injured SUEM doctor was taken to Belluno Hospital for diagnostic testing following the incident.\u00a0<\/strong>An afternoon update from Ulss 1 Dolomiti hospital said that the doctor\u2019s condition was not a cause for concern.

Italian National Alpine and Speleological Rescue Corps (CNSAS), said technical investigations had been launched to reconstruct what happened during the rescue operation. \u201cThe technical investigations are planned to accurately reconstruct the dynamics of what happened and verify every element useful to the understanding of the facts,\u201d Titton said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Titton emphasized that Alpine rescue operations routinely take place in difficult and hazardous environments, where rescuers themselves can be exposed to significant risks. <\/strong>\u201cPrecisely for this reason, every anomalous event is analyzed with the utmost rigor, with a view to the continuous improvement of the safety of operations,\u201d Titton said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Alpine Rescue specifically urged against speculation or assigning responsibility before the investigation has established what occurred.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Just days before the incident, CNSAS Veneto had reported that August had seen a very high amount of rescue calls, stating that the Operations Centers of the Emergency and Medical Emergency Services were overwhelmed by calls.<\/strong> The organization said that its helicopters were flying uninterruptedly. Many of these rescue calls were entirely avoidable and came from people who were ill-equipped, uninformed, and inexperienced.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rescue professionals put themselves in danger every day to rescue others and sometimes will get injured and require rescue themselves. <\/strong>The footage from the Falzarego Towers is a reminder of just how quickly things can go wrong in the mountains \u2014 even for professionals.<\/p>\n<p><!-- CONTENT END 1 -->\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The rescue doctor falling down along with the stretcher. | Image: screenshot video Shocking video footage has emerged from a rescue operation gone wrong in Cortina d\u2019Ampezzo in the Italian Dolomites.
