‘Air ambulance services vital during emergencies in high-risk areas’

PETALING JAYA: Coordination efforts among local authorities could be enhanced to improve the delivery of medical services during emergencies in high-risk areas, says a public health expert.

Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia public health expert Prof Dr Sharifa Ezat Wan Puteh said these efforts would ensure assets such as air ambulance services could be more readily deployed on short notice to sites such as hilly terrains or riversides when tragedy strikes.
