INTRODUCING OUR ESTATE’S AMBULANCE SERVICE
In a pioneering move to bolster the well-being and safety of our residents, the Val de Vie HOA is proud to announce the availability of a dedicated ambulance service on 1 June 2024. Recognising the need for swift medical response and rapid treatment, this initiative aims to provide exceptional emergency care right at our doorstep. The initial announcement of the dedicated ambulance service was met with enthusiastic approval. Knowing faster response times is a reality in emergencies, brings a welcome sense of relief to our community.
It is well known that healthcare and related services come at a significant cost. We are deeply grateful for the financial contributions from Selwyn Chatz, Val de Vie Evergreen, the Val de Vie HOA, and the Val de Vie Polo Club, which have made this vital service possible.
The 24/7 Titanium Securitas ambulance service, based at the Evergreen Medical Centre with a dedicated operations hub, features cutting-edge medical equipment and a team of highly skilled paramedics. Val de Vie Evergreen has made dedicated accommodation available to the ambulance teams during after-hours and standby periods, enabling the ambulance to be available around the clock.
Life Support Systems
The ambulance is equipped with state-of-the-art medical equipment, ensuring comprehensive care for emergencies ranging from cardiac incidents to severe injuries.
Expert Medical Personnel
The ambulance is staffed with experienced emergency medical technicians (EMTs) adept at handling medical emergencies.
Seamless Communication
Integrated communication facilitates direct and efficient coordination with nearby hospitals and healthcare providers, ensuring smooth patient transfers and continued care.
Minutes matter in medical emergencies. One of the primary benefits of this on-site service is the significant reduction in response time during a medical emergency. When every second counts, having a dedicated ambulance ensures that professional medical care can reach your doorstep in mere minutes.
Evergreen Village Manager Attie Schultz shared similar sentiments: “The health and safety of our residents are of the utmost importance, and continuous care forms part of Evergreen’s five pillars: Physical Security, Financial Peace of Mind, Continuous Care, Sense of Community, and Exceptional Hospitality. This initiative is a significant step forward in enhancing the living experience at Evergreen.”
The Val de Vie HOA is committed to continually assessing and enhancing the ambulance service to better serve residents. Future considerations include offering expanded medical training sessions for the community and establishing stronger partnerships with local healthcare facilities. The launch of the dedicated ambulance service represents a landmark development in community healthcare. This initiative raises the bar for gated communities, demonstrating a proactive approach to emergency medical care. The Val de Vie HOA remains steadfast in its mission to ensure the health, safety, and overall well-being of our residents, fostering a community that enjoys an exceptional living experience.
