SIEHS Hopes/Ambulances are a beacon of hope for those in need. Whenever people require assistance in emergency situations, our service is always ready to help. In today’s world, the emergency ratio in Pakistan has increased significantly due to various health issues such as heart attacks, chest pain, shortness of breath, abdominal pain, stress, and depression or any critical delivery cases. As a result, people often find themselves in emergency situations, and that’s where our SIEHS ambulance service 1122 comes in. Our ambulances are available 24/7, serving all areas of Sindh. This free-of-cost service provides timely and effective responses to emergency situations, bringing hope and relief to those in need.

Motto of Sindh integrated and heath service 1122

How to use ambulance service 1122
In the event of an emergency, whether at home, on the road, or anywhere else, simply dial 1122 to access the ambulance service. The Command-and-Control Department will receive your call, and an expert team will ask for information about the patient’s condition to determine the best course of action. Based on the patient’s condition, a health service code will be generated, and the Command-and-Control Centre will dispatch the emergency to the ambulance staff. The ambulance will then be deployed to pick up the patient within a specified timeframe. Once on board, an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) will provide first aid and conduct primary and secondary assessments while en route to the hospital. Finally, the EMT will ensure the patient is safely transferred to the hospital for further treatment.
