It's been another busy week for our First Responders and Response Vehicles, with teams attending to a wide range of medical emergencies across our community – and another reminder of why community medical emergency response matters.<\/p>\n

Emergencies included motor vehicle collisions, breathing difficulties, cardiac-related emergencies, seizures, a stroke, diabetic emergencies, and both domestic and industrial accidental injuries, among others.<\/p>\n

In each case, patients were assessed, stabilised, and, where necessary, transported to hospital for further care.<\/p>\n

A special thank you to Netcare911, ER24, Metro EMS, Fire & Rescue, Traffic, SAPS and the security companies that provided valuable assistance and support at several emergencies throughout the week. Collaboration like this makes a real difference when seconds matter.<\/p>\n

As we head into the weekend, please take care and stay safe….<\/p>\n
