“My inner satisfaction and peace comes from saving lives”

For Amjad Ali Bukhari, life has not been an easy ride. He lost his father 15 years ago. It was tough then, and tougher now in terms of making ends meet.

“My family comprises of 9 members, and our total aggregate income is 27,000 rupees ($270). My son and I are the only breadwinners.”

Yet, when Amjad leaves home each morning for Aman Foundation and sits behind the steering wheel of the lifesaving ambulance, he is a happy man.

”My inner satisfaction and peace comes from saving lives”, he says.

The biggest motivation for him is the incident where him and his team miraculously brought a patient back to life. Being trained in basic first aid and life-saving initiatives, he recalls one incident where these skills helped him save a life.

“I received a call from Korangi 5, from a 60-year-old lady who was a heart patient. Shortly after I got to her, the patient collapsed and went in to cardiac arrest. I started CPR, as the nurse and doctor worked on the patient. The patient was revived, and we were happy to save a life.”

“The patient was revived, and we were happy to save a life.”

“Aman Ambulances are the only ones here that have the potential to save lives,” he says, adding that the work environment is motivating as the staff at Aman is dedicated and passionate about the mission of transforming lives.
