The Saudi Red Crescent Authority (SRCA) celebrates the tireless efforts of its 90 dedicated female paramedics who work shoulder-to-shoulder with their male colleagues to provide life-saving emergency medical services across the Kingdom.
Since joining the authority in 2022, these remarkable women have become an inspiration, demonstrating unwavering dedication, compassion, and resilience.
These women paramedics shoulder a variety of responsibilities. They deliver critical medical care, respond to emergencies, teach first aid, and educate communities on health issues.
They also play a vital role in serving pilgrims and Umrah performers in the two holy mosques of Makkah and Madinah.
Saudi women's impact on humanitarian services transcends national borders. In a groundbreaking move, they were the first SRCA responders to participate in the relief efforts following the 2023 Turkiye earthquakes.
At home, over 1.3 million cases were handled by SRCA paramedic teams last year, a testament to their invaluable contribution to the well-being of Saudi society. In line with Saudi Vision 2030, SRCA remains dedicated to providing equal opportunities for women to thrive in all fields.
