Based in Sandton
Home ground
Most of the areas we serve are reached from somewhere else. Sandton is different, because this is where our ambulances start every shift.
Our base in Kelvin View sits between Marlboro and Linbro Park, with the M1 and the N3 close by. From there, crews reach the business district along Grayston Drive and Rivonia Road, and the northern suburbs along William Nicol Drive.
That makes Ralmed a genuinely local ambulance service Sandton residents and businesses can rely on, day and night.
In the towers
Office towers, hotels and shopping centres bring their own challenges for any ambulance service Sandton relies on. These steps make a real difference:
Reception or the security desk can hold a lift and guide the crew up to the right floor.
Around Sandton City and Nelson Mandela Square, say which street entrance the crew should use.
Ask event staff to meet the crew at the door and walk them to the patient.
Give the exit or the street you are on, and stay somewhere the crew can see you.
Where we go
The area sits within Region E of the City of Johannesburg. Our crews work across it, including:
In the gated estates of Bryanston and Morningside, call the guardhouse as soon as you have called us. In Alexandra, a school, a church or a spaza shop is the landmark that helps most.
Hospitals
The crew and you agree the hospital, based on the patient's needs and medical aid. Nearby hospitals include:
| Hospital | Area | Type |
|---|---|---|
| Mediclinic Morningside | Morningside | Private |
| Mediclinic Sandton | Bryanston | Private |
| Netcare Sunninghill Hospital | Sunninghill | Private |
| Charlotte Maxeke Johannesburg Academic Hospital | Parktown | Public |

Yes. Call us, then tell building security that an ambulance is coming. Security can hold a lift and bring the crew straight to the right floor. Give the building name, the street entrance and the floor when you call. Send someone to meet the crew in the lobby.
Yes. Alexandra is close to our Kelvin View base, and our crews work there as they do across the rest of the area. Street names can be hard to see at night, so give a landmark such as a school, a church or a shop.
That depends on the patient's needs and, where it is clinically safe, your choice. Nearby private hospitals include Mediclinic Morningside, Mediclinic Sandton and Netcare Sunninghill. Charlotte Maxeke in Parktown is the nearest large public academic hospital. The crew will explain where they are going before they leave.
