Marine traffic website suggests they have been out about 30km west of Clifden and may have landed at the hospital in Castlebar on the way back, so I presume they collected an injured or ill fisherman and brought him to hospital.

Yep , it was Rescue 118 (EI-ICG) departing back to its base in Sligo after been at Castlebar hospital following an airlift from a boat off the west coast.
