The development of this National Emergency Medical Services Policy comes in response to the�public outcry over limited response to emergencies right from the scene of an emergency (home,�school, work or location) to accident and emergency units in health facilities, non-functional�ambulances, and lack of coordination of the various stakeholders. The Health Sector Development�plan (HSDP) 2016/17-2020/21, H.E. the President��s Strategic Directives to the Health Sector and�the NRM Government Manifesto 2016- 2021 spell out the establishment of a functional ambulance�and referral system as one of the key deliverables by 2021.
