On March 28, an 83-year-old patient suffered a fall from a stretcher while being transported by a private ambulance driver to Government Medical College and Hospital (GMCH-32) in Chandigarh, India. The incident, captured on CCTV, has raised serious concerns about the accountability of private emergency transport services. The patient was being moved from Mohali when the driver mishandled the stretcher, causing the elderly man to fall unconscious. Despite the ambulance being arranged through GMCH-32, the UT Administration has distanced itself from the incident, stating that the driver was not part of the government fleet. The Director of Health Services, Suman Singh, confirmed that while drivers receive training every three months in first aid and patient handling, the lack of oversight for private operators remains a significant issue. The family has filed a complaint, alleging negligence and abusive behavior from the driver, and is demanding an inquiry into his qualifications. Current regulations require private ambulance drivers to hold a commercial driving license and undergo basic training, but enforcement appears lacking. With only 16 ambulances serving a population of over 1.2 million, reliance on private services is common, leaving families questioning who is responsible when mishaps occur during transport. As it stands, the answer remains unclear.
