Message
The limited capacity to deal with emergencies and disasters was putting the lives
and properties of the citizens at risk. This was evident from the fact that there
were over 95% chances that in case of emergency; the victim will not get an ambulance
for transportation, let alone timely emergency care by trained professionals. Therefore,
it was quite clear that emergency management has been long neglected in Pakistan
and there are no trained emergency paramedics even in the emergency departments
of teaching hospitals. Moreover, pre-hospital emergency ambulance, rescue and trained
fire services or a disaster response force were virtually non-existent which was
blatantly exposed during October, 2005 earthquake in Pakistan. A few ambulances
available with the NGOs lacked essential equipment and trained staff. Thus, the
citizens of Pakistan were denied even the basic right to timely emergency care in
case of any emergency or a disaster.
