LE PUMA ET LES SAPEURS-POMPIERS RENFORCENT LES SECOURS AVEC TROIS BATEAUX-AMBULANCES
The strengthening of emergency response systems in hard-to-reach areas is becoming more concrete. The PUMA (Emergency Response Unit) and the National Fire Brigade (BNSP) held a working session dedicated to pooling their resources and strengthening the response provided to populations in island territories and border areas.
At the heart of the discussions is the transfer of three PUMA ambulance boats to the BNSP. These vessels will strengthen the medical evacuation and intervention capabilities of emergency services for populations who, due to their geographical location, face particular difficulties in accessing health facilities and emergency services.
During the meeting, the National Coordinator of PUMA, Dr. Ndeye Marième Samb, presented the objectives of this collaboration to the Commander of the National Fire Brigade, General Mamadou Ndoye. She emphasized the importance of pooling resources to provide a faster and more effective response to the needs of populations living in border and hard-to-reach areas.
This initiative reflects the commitment of both organizations to strengthen the complementarity of their interventions and bring emergency services closer to the most remote populations. The use of appropriate nautical resources should help reduce response times and facilitate medical evacuations in areas where land access remains a significant challenge.
