Narrative:

While descending into sby for landing we received an RA. 1) monitor vertical speed. 2) descend. 3) monitor vertical speed. 4) climb. These RA's occurred rapidly. As we parked at the gate our flight attendant called and informed us she would like help opening the door. This was our first indication of any problem. She said her neck was injured. Although she had not hit her head nor had been thrown. We called an ambulance to examine and transport the flight attendant to a local hospital.
