Lifeline Medicare Cardiac Ambulance Service

Being based out of Shatabdhi Hospital on SV Road in Kandivali West means we are always right in the middle of the traffic. Running a cardiac ambulance service like Lifeline Medicare is mostly about waiting and then moving very fast. We keep the vans parked where they can get out onto the main road without too much trouble, though Mumbai traffic usually has other plans. The equipment inside the ambulances needs constant checking. We spend a lot of time making sure the oxygen tanks are full and the monitors are actually working before the next call comes in. Our drivers know the shortcuts around Kandivali like the back of their hands. It is a tough job because you never know what the day will look like. One hour it is quiet, and the next we are navigating through a jam with the siren on. We handle a lot of heart-related emergencies, so the staff on board has to be comfortable with that kind of pressure. They are regular people who have seen a lot on these roads. We don't have a big corporate office or a front desk with flowers. Our office is basically the front seat of an ambulance. It gets hot, it gets loud, but this is what we do. We have been at this location for a while now, and most people around SV Road recognize our vehicles. It is just about getting from point A to point B safely.
