Ambulance Access for All Foundation

The MEMEx - I and II (Mumbai Emergency Management Exercise) conducted by the organisation involved a collaborative effort with multiple institutions, including the BMC, P J Hinduja National Hospital, and LifeSupporters Institute of Health Sciences. It brought together local emergency responders, hospitals, educational institutions, and humanitarian agencies to enhance Mumbai’s emergency response system through intensive training, workshops, and a comprehensive field-based drill over seven days. Led by the United Nations Disaster Management Team with support from national and state disaster management authorities, the event, conducted in 2009 and 2010, featured international faculty from esteemed institutions in the USA, focusing on strengthening disaster response capabilities in the city.

The organisation aims to equip Indians with crucial skills as first responders during medical crises through comprehensive First Aid and Basic Life Support (BLS) training. Teaming up with the LifeSupporters Institute of Health Sciences, it has conducted numerous workshops across various sectors including corporations, schools, and residential communities. Collaborating with entities like Tata, Tata-AIG, Hindustan Unilever, HSBC, BPCL, Philips, Jet Airways, and many others, these workshops aim to empower individuals from diverse backgrounds, including students from several prominent educational institutions like Dhirubai Ambani International School, HR College, and Bombay Cambridge School, among others, fostering a nation-wide network of capable first aiders.

Over 15 years, the AAA Foundation acknowledged ambulance crews for pre-hospital care. Amid COVID-19, it supports frontline health workers—doctors, nurses, paramedics, and ambulance crews—critical in the pandemic fight. With a healthcare workforce shortage, their safety is paramount. Teaming with the Life Supporters Institute of Health Science, it aims to aid 10,000+ healthcare workers and families. Funds provide PPE and create a safety net for emergencies, ensuring their well-being, addressing COVID-19 risks, and fostering a resilient healthcare system.
