🚨 COMMUNITY AMBULANCE FUND — CALLOUT UPDATE

*Homeland Security SA* and the *Homeland Security TRT – MGUIP* responded to a call for urgent medical assistance at a residence in Glen Grove.

On arrival, our members found a 50-year-old male experiencing severe difficulty breathing, with little to no movement on the left side of his body. Recognising the seriousness of his condition, members immediately requested urgent medical assistance.

As the resident did not have medical aid, *Homeland Security SA* activated the *Community Ambulance Fund* and dispatched *ALS Paramedics* to the scene. *ALS* arrived within minutes, treated the patient on scene and transported him to King George Hospital for urgent further medical treatment.

Numerous *Homeland Security SA* members attended and assisted with the response.

This is exactly why the *Community Ambulance Fund* exists: to help ensure that when a life-threatening emergency occurs, people can access urgent private ambulance assistance without the cost becoming a barrier to receiving care.

Thank you to every resident, business and stakeholder who supports this initiative. Your contributions make these emergency responses possible.

*For the Community. By the Community*.

Manor Gardens, Glenwood & Umbilo fund their own private ambulance callouts for life-threatening emergencies when no state ambulance can come.

INCIDENT REPORT | WELFARE CHECK AND DISCOVERY OF DECEASED PERSON
Yesterday afternoon, *Homeland Security SA* received numerous calls regarding concern for the welfare of a 78-year-old male resident who had not been seen for approximately 24 hours.

The resident was known to follow a consistent daily routine, regularly attending bowls games and providing someone with a lift in the mornings. However, on this occasion, he had not provided the usual lift and had failed to attend his scheduled bowls game, raising concerns among those who knew him.

*Homeland Security SA* immediately dispatched members to his residential address at an apartment complex to conduct a welfare check.

Upon arrival, members made contact with a neighbour, who confirmed that the resident's vehicle was still parked in the garage and that nobody had seen him. Members attempted to contact the resident telephonically and could hear his phone ringing inside the apartment, but received no response.

The apartment was situated on the third floor and secured by substantial security doors. Due to the building's layout and security features, members were unable to obtain a visual of the interior through the windows. Despite repeated attempts to get a response by knocking and calling out, there was no answer.

Members subsequently managed to contact a relative, who authorised them to force entry into the apartment.
Paul from Lock and Key Cabin in Umbilo was contacted and responded to assist. He successfully assisted in removing the security doors and gaining access through the remaining locked doors.

Once entry was gained, members sadly discovered the resident deceased inside the apartment.
Netcare 911 attended the scene and formally declared the resident deceased. His body was subsequently transported to a funeral home.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS AND CONDOLENCES
*Homeland Security SA* would like to extend its sincere appreciation to Paul from Lock and Key Cabin in Umbilo for his assistance, the residents of the apartment complex for their cooperation, and all *Homeland Security SA* members who responded and assisted during the incident.

Our sincere condolences go out to the deceased's family, friends, and all those who knew him. Our thoughts are with them during this difficult time.

*HOMELAND SECURITY SA*
Serving and protecting our community.
