“This project brings us a step closer to our aim of improving the quality of life of our people. The safety of the citizens of the Sekhukhune in particular,” said MEC Dr. Ramathuba.

“The role played by emergency vehicles such as ambulances in quality health service delivery cannot be over-emphasised. The service of these vehicles is always required in many emergency situations. Where there are either accidents on our roads or emergency health and trauma cases in our homes.

“This is one of the critical programmes in quality health. Service delivery is the services that we provide through the Emergency Medical Services. Without any doubt, this is one of the health programmes that have undergone much transformation since 1994.”

“The delivery of quality health services to our people is one of the cornerstones of the People’s Contract that the ANC-led government has entered with the masses of our people.”
