Accident place and time
Extent of accident - description
Condition of patient (information on previous physical condition), name,

If flying conditions are suitable for a helicopter rescue,
a person should signal the helicopter with their back toward the wind
and using arm signals to land the helicopter.

If it is the injured who is giving the signals, his back does not have to be turned toward the wind.

Always approach the helicopter from the front paying careful attention to the rotor.
When only observing, keep an adequate distance away from the helicopter.
