APM Terminals Pipavav provides local community access to emergency ambulance

Being a responsible Corporate Citizen, the health & welfare of the local communities around the Port is of prime importance to us. Due to the limited medical facilities available locally, the villagers have no access to advanced medical support during an emergency.

To save lives and support villagers during medical emergencies, we have launched a 24x7 advanced life support ambulance in collaboration with GVK EMRI (GVK Emergency Management and Research Institute). The ambulance is well equipped with advanced life support equipment to measure vital parameters, a ventilator for oxygen support and critical medicines.

The ALS Ambulance is located at the Port Medical Centre, ready to move to the nearest hospital any time at a short notice to address the medical emergencies for residents of Shiyalbet, Bherai and Rampara.

Simply dial 07971865108 to use the facility.  Your call will be handled by a centralised call system manned by trained paramedics, a pilot and online expert Doctors to deal with emergencies related to accidents, fire, health, natural calamities etc.

This is another example of living and practicing one of our core values “Constant care” that guides us to take care of today and actively prepare for tomorrow.
