Cape Town - The SA Red Cross Air Mercy Service (AMS) recently received life-saving medical devices from the Gift of the Givers Foundation.
The non-profit aero-medical rescue organisation based in Cape Town and Oudtshoorn, and Gift of the Givers, were beneficiaries of Brimstone Empowerment Share Trust, an initiative that aims to create a more sustainable model of support to organisations.
AMS chief executive Philip Erasmus said the life-saving medical devices would be able to support patients in respiratory distress and add to patient life-support options currently available on the organisation’s rotor and fixed-wing air ambulances.
