Whether it’s a boda accident in Syokimau, a diabetic crisis in Kisumu, or a post-surgery transfer in Eldoret—emergencies don’t wait, and neither should your ambulance. But in Kenya, finding reliable emergency support can feel like a gamble.
Here are five things to check before you book emergency or ambulance services:
✅ 1. Are They Verified and Reviewed?
You’re trusting someone with your life or a loved one’s. You need trained, trusted professionals—not a random number from a WhatsApp group.
What to look for:
- ✅Verified badge on the Balozy App
- ✅Ratings and reviews from real clients
- ✅Clear service descriptions (basic life support, advanced life support, inter-hospital transfers)
- ✅Photos of ambulances and medical staff
💡 On Balozy, every emergency provider is background-checked and reviewed—so you book with confidence.
🩺 2. Do They Offer Trained Medical Personnel?
An ambulance isn’t just a van—it’s a mobile clinic. A verified provider should have paramedics, nurses, or EMTs on board.
Ask before booking:
- ✅Do you provide trained medical staff during transit?
- ✅Is your team certified in CPR, trauma care, or emergency response?
- ✅Can you handle pediatric, maternity, or critical care cases?
📍 3. Are They Local to Your Area?
Response time is everything. Booking someone from your estate or cluster means faster arrival and better coordination.
Balozy Tip: Use the “Near Me” filter to find emergency services in Nairobi, Machakos, Eldoret, Kisumu, or wherever you are.
💬 4. Do They Communicate Clearly and Professionally?
You want someone who confirms your booking, shares ETA, and updates you—not someone who says “tuko karibu” for 45 minutes.
Look for:
- ✅Fast response time on the app or hotline
- ✅Transparent pricing and service scope
- ✅Respectful, calm communication
🧰 5. Do They Offer Proper Equipment and Backup?
A verified ambulance should come equipped—not empty. Look for oxygen, stretchers, monitors, and backup support.
Ask:
- ✅Do you carry oxygen, defibrillators, or IV kits?
- ✅Is your ambulance insured and roadworthy?
- ✅Do you offer backup vehicles or coordination with hospitals?
