In preparation for the launch of Priority Air Ambulance, we have been training our medics alongside our partners at City Ambulance. Together with their ground ambulance proficiency and our air ambulance expertise, we are able to offer world-class services. Patients can be seamlessly transported from the site of an accident to their chosen clinic or hospital using a combination of ground ambulances, aeroplanes and helicopters.
A patient was simulated to have been airlifted for a higher level of medical care in Kampala.
The training at Kajjansi Airfield focused on transferring patients from the scene of an accident to the plane or helicopter and then on to the ground ambulance. Part of the training focused on safety around aircraft, safe approach, the operations command system and team interaction. Improved procedures were identified and revised to ensure smooth future operations.
