The Altis National Health Services is one of the most vital parts of Altis infrastructure, ensuring that Altians are healthy and cared for. The organization has recently been criticized, some concerned citizens stating that they are 'failing to perform an easy task'. We caught a ride with a man named Miller who works for the NHS, and got his thoughts.
"It's 100% hard work, but my personal views on it, it's 100 percent worth it." said STU. Miller, a medic in training.
The NHS have to drive large distances, sometimes over 20 kilometers, to reach injured civilians and police officials. These drives can take around ten to fifteen minutes, and in that time frame it could be too late to save them. In addition to that, they respond to injuries after firefights, muggings, and other violent crimes, and they must help the victims. Many think their jobs are never inherently dangerous.
"Well, it's sometimes like that, although at other points in time, you think you could be getting into a dangerous area, where it feels like you're gonna get held at gunpoint or other stuff." said Miller.
Along the way, we picked up another medic named Kylanh, a first-aider. We had to rush to the scene of a car accident where a man had been injured, and Kylanh immediately began resuscitation. He did this while singing the song 'Staying Alive'. Miller watched closely, seemingly eager to learn. After a few moments, the man was brought back and seemed well. He was given water, food, and a bit of advice from Kylanh.
"It's the power of singing, but the officers weren't getting involved, so that's why it took a few tries." said Kylanh.
We then continued to Kavala, where we met a medic who preferred to remain anonymous. Kylanh had to deal with a shooting, where a man was shot several times in the back. He had to wait a few minutes though, as the NHS have a strict policy on medics endangering themselves in combat zones, and he had to make sure no more shootings would occur.
"It's a tough job, but we keep pressing forward because each and every one of us knows what their duty is, and we all do it for the greater good of Altis." said the anonymous medic.
