FIRST AIR RESPONDER
Knight Support have been coordinating Emergency Air evacuations since 1999. When incidents happen you need an organization that is experienced and has the professional staff and equipment ready for action.
2006 saw the launch of yet another service from Knight Support - First Air Responder (FAR), an emergency medical evacuation scheme operating from East Africa.
We operate using reputable air charter companies based in the north and south of Tanzania and AMREF Flying Doctors Service in Nairobi, Kenya. We can mobilize fixed wing or rotor wing depending on location and emergency. We use our own Advanced Life Support ambulances for all ground handling, airport/hospital transfer and for emergencies on the ground. We have Knight Support ambulances in Nairobi, Arusha/Moshi, Mwanza and Dar es Salaam, and access to ground support in Zanzibar, Mbeya, Dodoma and Tanga.
FAR is a membership scheme for Tourist and Residents in East Africa. You can cover yourself from as little as 14 days up to 1 year to ensure that wherever you are in East Africa we will come to your assistance in the event of an Emergency Ground or Air evacuation. FAR is on standby 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, ready to deploy at a moments notice to its members. You or your clients may have International Medical cover but this will not help you when you need IMMEDIATE FIRST RESPONSE ASSISTANCE for your loved one or your client. We offer you assistance from the scene of the incident all the way through to the hospital.
