The Savannah Regional National Ambulance Service (NAS) is strengthening its partnership with traditional authorities and key community institutions to improve emergency preparedness and lifesaving service delivery, following a collaborative engagement with the Tinga Wura, Saaka Abdulai Jaaga, in Tinga.
The engagement, led by the Savannah Regional Administrative Manager of NAS, PAEMT Karim Musah-Techi, alongside the Tinga Ambulance Station Manager and his team, focused on assessing operational needs, identifying challenges and exploring opportunities to strengthen emergency response within the community and its surrounding areas.
As part of the visit, the delegation toured the Tinga Ambulance Station, Tinga Health Centre and Tinga Police Station, interacting with personnel and gaining firsthand insight into their operational conditions, infrastructure and logistical needs.
A major highlight was the Tinga Wura’s expressed commitment and pledge of support towards the development and improvement of the Tinga Ambulance Station. This gesture underscores the vital role traditional authorities play in complementing government efforts to strengthen healthcare delivery, emergency preparedness and community safety.
The visit also provided an important platform for strengthening collaboration among emergency medical responders, healthcare providers, security agencies and traditional leadership, recognising that an effective emergency response system requires collective commitment and coordinated action.
The Tinga Ambulance Station Manager expressed appreciation to the Regional Administration, the Tinga Wura and his entourage for their visit, engagement and willingness to support the station’s development.
