East African Aviation, a private
company, has launched Ethiopia’s first ambulance transportation service.
The company is owned by
Capt. Mulat Lemlemayehu, a former commercial pilot at the Ethiopian
airlines who also owns an aviation school and air charter service.
It’s the first air ambulance service
in Ethiopia with aircraft equipped with state-of-the-art medical equipment and
licensed, medically trained personnel to provide air transportation for those
requiring prompt medical attention in East Africa.
“With the state-of-the-art medical
equipment fitted in the air ambulance, we specialize in transporting patients
with the same level of care that would be expected from a hospital
ICU,” Lemlemayehu said. “Air ambulance has been nonexistent in our
country.”
Ethiopia has more than 90
million people, a tourist hub in the region and Addis Ababa is the
diplomatic capital of Africa with a large international community,
he said.
He told reporters that East African
Aviation has a team pilots who have served Ethiopian Airlines for years.
Lemlemayehu founded the company
after working for Ethiopian Airlines as a commercial pilot for 39 years.

Air Ambulance transportation service is the costliest Non emergency medical transportation service anywhere on the planet. It is a great news for the people of Ethiopia that such service has been started in the country. I have already used this service in Scottsdale, USA many times, and I am very happy and excited to hire this service in Ethiopia now.
