Disaster relief
Providing disaster relief is a basic mission for us. We have a lot of experience in that field. No coincidence, then, that the government has officially designated us as its sole and preferential partner for this purpose. We are part of the overall emergency and intervention planning of medical, sanitary and psychosocial assistance. In the event of a disaster, we take on three main tasks: medical assistance, transportation of the injured and psychosocial support.
Medical care
During a disaster, ordinary emergency services do not always have sufficient resources. Our SITs (Rapid Intervention Team) assist them immediately. They bring all the equipment needed to quickly set up a medical post: inflatable tents, lighting, stretcher bars, medical equipment and emergency medication. Under the direction of doctors and nurses, we provide injured people with initial care. Thus, their condition remains at least stable during or while waiting for their transfer to the hospital.
Transportation of injured persons
In a disaster situation with many people affected, it comes down to providing the necessary care to as many people as possible as quickly as possible. We organize the transportation of injured people. We record everything accurately. At any time, we know exactly where all the ambulances are and which injured people have been taken to where.
