Parents are strongly advised to supervise children closely during celebrations to avert accidents such as drowning, falls, burns, and injuries from fireworks or other dangerous activities.
National Ambulance, operating under the National Guard Command, has announced increased readiness as part of its proactive strategy for the upcoming Eid Al-Adha holiday.
These measures are designed to ensure a rapid response to emergency calls and the delivery of ambulance services with the highest standards of quality and operational efficiency.
The plan includes strengthening field coverage through an increased strategic deployment of ambulance crews, vehicles, and medical equipment, as well as increasing staffing in ambulance communication centres to further enhance readiness.
Key focus areas include high-density public areas that typically experience large crowds during the holiday, such as mosques where Eid prayers are held, abattoirs, beaches, public parks, shopping malls, and tourist hotspots.
As part of its ongoing commitment to bolster rapid response for emergencies, traffic accidents, and potential injuries during public holidays, National Ambulance has rolled out a new plan. This initiative is being implemented in close coordination with key strategic partners throughout the emergency and public safety sectors.
National Ambulance also reminds the public to prioritize traffic safety by adhering to regulations and driving cautiously, particularly during busy holiday periods. Parents are strongly advised to supervise children closely during celebrations to avert accidents such as drowning, falls, burns, and injuries from fireworks or other dangerous activities.
National Ambulance continues to deliver round-the-clock emergency medical services across the Emirates of Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, Umm Al Qaiwain, and Fujairah.
Backed by highly trained teams and a modern fleet equipped with advanced life-saving technology, the organisation ensures quality care in line with global best practices in pre-hospital emergency care.
