Accidents are quick to happen even when you least expect them.
Legacy Emergency Specialists received a rescue call out to Reyno Ridge where an elderly man was working on the rooftop before he dislocated his hip and could not make his way off the roof.
Luckily someone was at home with him to call for help. Legacy with the help of other parties arrived on the scene.
They acted quickly and in a professional manner to transport the man from the rooftop to the ambulance with scaffolding that was up and steady within 10 minutes.
“I would like to thank SACCW, Frik van Dyk and all involved parties who helped with the rescue,” said Mr Gene Jacobs from Legacy Emergency Specialists to the WITBANK NEWS
