ER24 responds to the pandemic by offering support services to clients

ER24, as an organisation, continuously strives to be responsive, adaptable, and innovative in our approach to health and safety. With the COVID-19 pandemic, we are ready to support our clients with their return to work preparations, as well as day to day requirements and together ensuring that staff feel confident and protected going back to work and that customers feel safe returning to shop or do business.

ER24 has been providing South Africans with efficient, effective emergency response and pre-hospital care for more than 18 years. Health and safety have always been at the heart of our business. With our extensive knowledge, experience and expertise in the industry, we are here to partner with businesses around the country to combat this pandemic.

How can we help you and your business? In order to support our clients during this challenging period, ER24 has developed a suite of services to help your business navigate the new ‘normal’ every step of the way.

These services are:

– ER24 Consulting Services

– Premises and Fleet Sanitising

These services include practical medical consultancy services, including on-site risk assessments, screening services, COVID-19 awareness training for company staff and approved contractors, and supply of personal protective equipment (face masks, hand sanitiser, handheld infra-red thermometers, etc.). Furthermore, we are able to offer access to the ER24 online portal providing credible information including updates from NICD, nationwide statistics etc., and the ER24 COVID-19 support line managed by trained staff to provide trauma debriefing, further guidance on next intervention for the patient including transportation, admission, self-isolation or referral to a health practitioner.
