The list of medical emergencies that require immediate evacuation is endless. By definition, an emergency is a serious unexpected situation that requires immediate action. Not having the right contacts for such a situation can turn out to be a fatality real quick. This is why we have compiled a comprehensive list of all the emergency services contacts in Kenya for you. As you may know, most ambulances come with both basic and advanced medical equipment for medical support and qualified staff. This means an ambulance can be self-sufficient in terms of life support facilities.
If you do not see any contact for an ambulance service in your area, consider contacting the nearest hospital to you and ask for an ambulance contact. In Kenya, and globally by extension, emergency medical services are not limited to ambulances and hospitals only, thus we have also put together contacts for such. This includes the fire fighting department, child abuse, missing persons, the police, KPLC, etc. The government also has numbers that you can call for any type of emergency and you will be directed to the appropriate service provider. These are 999, 911, and 112
