KARACHI: Sky Wings, a private aviation company<\/a>, has <\/span>recently<\/span> launched its air ambulance service in Pakistan. It is a significant<\/span>\u00a0step forward for emergency medical care in the country. <\/span><\/p>\n

The service will\u00a0<\/span>begin<\/span>\u00a0with a Piper Seneca aircraft based in Karachi, which\u00a0<\/span>will<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>be<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>able\u00a0<\/span>to transport patients from any airport to Karachi, ensuring they\u00a0<\/span>receive<\/span> the medical care they need on time. <\/span><\/p>\n

Additionally, <\/span>here<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>is<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>a\u00a0<\/span>special<\/span> medical team<\/a> for each flight <\/span>that<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>would<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>take care of the patients\u00a0<\/span>so they<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>are<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>safe<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>during<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>takeoff to landing. <\/span>The\u00a0CEO of the\u00a0<\/span>company<\/span>, Imran Aslam Khan, has\u00a0<\/span>much<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>larger\u00a0<\/span>plans to\u00a0<\/span>increase<\/span>\u00a0the service<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>by<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>adding\u00a0<\/span>two more aircraft\u00a0<\/span>to<\/span>\u00a0the fleet soon.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>is\u00a0<\/span>planned\u00a0<\/span>to\u00a0<\/span>have<\/span>\u00a0nationwide coverage, so\u00a0<\/span>that\u00a0<\/span>patients from\u00a0<\/span>the\u00a0<\/span>remote\u00a0<\/span>areas<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>as well as the\u00a0<\/span>urban\u00a0<\/span>ones<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>get swift transfers to medical facilities. This is\u00a0<\/span>quite<\/span>\u00a0important\u00a0<\/span>for<\/span>\u00a0a country like Pakistan, where\u00a0<\/span>medical care can be limited in\u00a0<\/span>certain<\/span>\u00a0areas.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sky Wings is\u00a0<\/span>also<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>replicating<\/span>\u00a0the\u00a0<\/span>model<\/span>\u00a0of the Edhi Foundation, which has been\u00a0<\/span>offering<\/span> emergency medical services in Pakistan for a long time. <\/span><\/p>\n

Earlier in July 2022, Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz <\/span>unveiled<\/span>\u00a0a government-<\/span>owned<\/span>\u00a0air ambulance service, which has already\u00a0<\/span>seen<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>a<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>few\u00a0<\/span>successful\u00a0<\/span>sorties<\/span>,\u00a0<\/span>including<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>ferrying<\/span> an injured woman from Mianwali to Rawalpindi.<\/span><\/p>\n

This <\/span>initiative by Sky Wings is\u00a0<\/span>an<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>excellent<\/span>\u00a0addition to the country’s\u00a0<\/span>efforts at\u00a0<\/span>emergency medical response<\/span>, and one is thrilled <\/span>to see private\u00a0<\/span>entities<\/span>\u00a0like Sky Wings\u00a0<\/span>step<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>forward<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>and<\/span> make a difference.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
