Our team recently assisted a doctor in transporting human organs from a healthcare facility in Gqeberha to Chief Dawid Stuurman International Airport.

We collected both the doctor and the transplant cooler from the hospital pickup point and proceeded to the airport, where a flight to Johannesburg was waiting.

Thank you to everyone involved in this process of helping to save lives! It is a privilege to work hand in hand with dedicated practitioners who are making a difference.

Quick thinking and teamwork helps save lives!

Our control room recently received a call from a member of the public who witnessed a vehicle leave the road and overturn on the N2 between Nanaga and Grahamstown/Makhanda. The callers quick thinking to report the accident and share a location pin via WhatsApp assisted our control room in dispatching the closest vehicle, which arrived in a timely manner.

It was determined that 3 patients required medical care and thanks to the equally fast response of Makanda Metro EMS, urgent care was provided to all injured. All occupants were transported to a medical facility in Makhanda by Gardmed Ambulance Service and Metro EMS. Thank you to all roleplayers for the efficient team work and compassionate patient care.
