Introduction
With so much crime and road crash across South Africa daily, we need to consider the challenges facing our first responders.
Do they manage to provide a response that is fast and effective while safe not only for other road users but also to themselves?
We recently shared an afternoon in a response car with CrisisOnCall – an experience that confirmed the need for more insights from our emergency responders.
In this Q&A we strive to share some insights from paramedics as well as some advice on how the motoring public can share roads safer with the medical and emergency response teams.
What is the "Golden Guideline" to follow when performing Emergency Response / Driving to the scene?
Not only must emergency vehicles drivers provide prompt conveyance of the apparatus, equipment, and personnel to provide a service to those in need, but as importantly, should do it in the safest manner possible
Safety First – Respond by doing so Safely!...
