It looks like VH-ESD has been undergoing maintenance at the QGAir facility at Archerfield Airport and in fact operated a couple of med-evac flights around the South-East corner as "Rescue 500" before heading North.

VH-ESD joins fellow QGAir Bell 412EP helicopter VH-ESB which continues to operate out of Townsville Airport as "Rescue 521".
