Call taking and dispatch

Custom designed integrated call taking (ICT) and integrated dispatch system (IDS) technology in Netcare 911’s national emergency operations centre (EOC) ensure that the nearest emergency response team is dispatched to the scene.

Satellite tracking

All of Netcare 911’s emergency vehicles are equipped with global positioning (GPS) technology. We also use satellite tracking to assist our emergency medical staff to get to the scene of an emergency in the shortest possible time.

Used devices donated to fight poaching

We’re not only passionate about saving human lives but also those of animals under threat. We donated over 100 communication devices to the Game Rangers Association of Africa (GRAA), including 97 Panasonic Toughbooks, vehicle radios and radio base stations.

Designed for use in rugged conditions, these devices are now used by brave teams in their anti-poaching operations.
