He was reportedly in a confused state and was taken to Royal Perth Hospital by helicopter.
Mr Fairchild was in a critical condition when he was found but he is now listed as in a stable condition.
The search for him resumed this morning after he went missing about 3am on Sunday.
He had not been seen since leaving an organised event on Yarra Road, about 7km from Brookton Highway in Flynn.
A police spokeswoman said he was last seen leaving the party and walking into nearby bush.
