An ER24 ambulance was put on standby with Cape Medical Response by the NSRI station in Simons Town, after they received a call for someone in medical distress on a boat off Cape Point.

“The medical transport crews stood-by at the NSRI station after a rescue craft was launched to retrieve a fifty six year old male patient, believed to be the captain of the vessel that the NSRI were dispatched to,” said ER 24’s Media Liaison for the Western Cape Tristan Wadeley

According to reports paramedics suspected that the man suffered from a stroke and was transported by ambulance, in a stable condition, to False Bay Hospital for further treatment.
