We are running an Advanced Life Support Service in the Western Cape and SAPEASA assisted us with our  Western Cape Licence. This in itself proved to be quiet difficult but SAPEASA stood by us all the way. It is good to know that we belong to a governing body that strives to make the profession as a whole into a more professional, quality and world class service not only for patients but for the private ambulance sectors in our country. We wish Oliver and his team great success in the future and thank them for a great service.

In South Africa today with the high demand placed on the private sector emergency medical response services we have found a drastic need for a unified body that is able to provide guidance, instruction or simple advice when needed, from assistance with medical aid claims management to advise on registration criteria and equipment purchases SAPAESA has proven an invaluable tool for us as a small to medium enterprise in Gauteng and in some cases nationally.

We at Intensive Medical Rescue Paramedical Services strongly believe in governance of the private ambulance industry in South Africa and herewith SAPAESA is seen as a major potential role player. The smaller private ambulance services need a mouthpiece that is able to bark with the big dogs and once again, SAPAESA is the solution for this problem.

Another great advantage of being a SAPAESA member is access to equipment at discounted prices which assisted us immensely in the past and no doubt in future. these are just a few of the reasons why IMR have and will continue to encourage other private ambulance services whether old or new, to become members of SAPAESA.

We have found the sharing of information and assistance with service provider interactions highly valued as SAPAESA really has taken the fight of the “little guy” to the coal face and fought for us when little or no attention is paid to the smaller services by certain service providers for medical aid claims. Updates and commentary on legal frame work changes from the various departments of health etc. have been both informative and explained and allow us to not only bench mark standards but ensure legal compliance, a enormous benefit to us once again.

We would like to thank Oliver and his team for the excellent service, advice and products that we have purchased from them. When we started Eden911 we had a million questions, every time we needed advice we could call on Oliver and his team to direct us in the right direction with advice and assistance. Our calls and emails were always answered in a quick time giving us advice and guidance as we needed it. We bought our equipment from SAPEASA (which we love).
