Karachi: A female operator from Rescue 1122 , Roshan Laghari, has set a new example of service by successfully guiding a woman through childbirth over the phone, earning the prestigious International Academy of Emergency Dispatch Award.
Rescue 1122 Ambulance Service receives hundreds of emergency calls daily, many of which are of a sensitive nature. In September 2024, a call made Roshan Laghari, a 22-year-old Rescue Service operator, deserving of the award.
At the Middle East Navigator Conference 2025 in Bahrain, organized by the International Academy of Emergency Dispatch, Roshan Laghari was honored with the International Academy of Emergency Dispatch Award.
