In a landmark development for Pakistan, the country has launched its inaugural air ambulance service, aiming to provide critical emergency care swiftly during the crucial “Golden Hour” after accidents or medical emergencies.
The new service proved its mettle recently when 40-year-old Haleema Bibi from Mianwali sustained severe injuries from a fall. Recognizing the urgency of her condition, doctors at District Headquarters Hospital (DHQ) Mianwali quickly recommended her transfer to Rawalpindi for advanced treatment.
Responding promptly to the emergency call, Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif facilitated Haleema Bibi’s swift evacuation using the newly established air ambulance service. Under the expert supervision of Dr. Razon Nasir, medical teams successfully conducted necessary surgery upon her arrival in Rawalpindi.
The trial operation of the air ambulance service ensured Haleema Bibi’s timely transportation from Mianwali to Rawalpindi, significantly enhancing her chances of recovery.
Expressing profound gratitude, Haleema Bibi’s family praised Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif as a “blessing” and extended prayers for her continued success. In response, the Chief Minister conveyed a heartfelt message to the family, stating, “He who saves one life, saves all of humanity. I acted on the command of Allah and am grateful that we could assist. My deepest desire is to alleviate the suffering of every citizen.”
Additionally, Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif called upon the nation to pray for Haleema Bibi’s speedy recovery and for the ongoing success of this pioneering initiative in emergency medical services.
