Tebita
The Concept
Tebita, in collaboration with PfC, has initiated a trio of projects to enhance Ethiopia’s pre- hospital care quality, plagued by inadequate staffing and resources. These include the establishment of a college for training Emergency Medical Technicians, a venture for producing first aid kits to mitigate the dire scarcity of medical supplies, and a dedicated
facility to centralize Tebita’s operations, ensuring the sustainability of these initiatives.
The government estimates that Ethiopia needs to train 25 000 trained paramedics to fulfil demand. Tebita is playing a crucial role in this.
The Challenge
The genesis of Tebita traces back to Kibret Abebe, a seasoned nurse anaesthetist, who, moved by the dire state of emergency services in Ethiopia, liquidated his assets to launch the nation’s pioneer private emergency medical service in 2008. His firsthand encounters with the inefficacies in emergency response propelled him to establish Tebita, which now boasts advanced ambulances, setting a new standard in the country’s emergency medical services.

The challenges in the training gave me opportunities to understand and learn about EMT and I look forward to hopefully being employed in Tebita and advance my education
