A woman and two children have been taken to hospital after a single vehicle crash between Linville and Avoca Vale, east of Nanango.

Paramedics responded to a call about 7:20am, when a car rolled over on Mt Stanley Road.

Due to the rural location of the accident, a LifeFlight helicopter was sent to the scene and landed in a paddock nearby.

A woman in her 30s was treated for minor back, chest, shoulder and head injuries and flown to the Sunshine Coast University Hospital.

She was treated by the LifeFlight critical care doctor, a Queensland Ambulance Service flight paramedic and local paramedics.

A pre-teen boy was treated for minor back injuries and a primary school aged boy sustained a minor wrist injury, both transported via road ambulance.

All three patients were taken to Sunshine Coast University Hospital in a stable condition.
