RIGHT EQUIPMENT

AMREF Flying Doctors has invested in six state of the art IsoArk N36 Portable Isolation Chambers for transfer of patients with highly contagious diseases including COVID-19.

The Portable Isolation Chambers prevent crossconta­mination between the patient and the external environmen­t and is the only way to provide safe transport of a patient infected with COVID-19 virus or any other highly contagious virus.

COMPLIANCE

The Portable Isolation Chambers meet all important requiremen­ts including the World Health Organisati­on (WHO) and Ministry of Health (Government of Kenya) regulation­s for protection against the risks of crossconta­mination.

COMPATIBLE TO AMBULANCES

The Isolation units can be used for patient transport on any of our fully-owned and dedicated Air and Ground Ambulances - allowing patient evacuation­s locally and internatio­nally.
