ABOUT US

We are able to provide immediate on-site medical support. Insurers rely on resources which are often more than 4 hours away. Not only do we save lives we also reduce the impact on operations and enhance the guest experience by bringing medical support right to your door. We’re endorsed by major travel insurance companies in South Africa. We handle an average of 100 remote medical incidents per month. Our strongest value lies in the network we have built over 10 years with medical experts, emergency evacuation service providers and administrative bodies; coupled with our in depth understanding of the remote destinations in Africa in which our partners operate. We have a customized approach to doing business, and will design a solution based on your organisation/company’s specific requirements.
