The government and parliament should allocate funds for air emergencies
Miadfar said: “We have predicted to have up to 70 air emergency bases in the coming months, but air emergency has a high cost and we can not expect to have one air emergency base in every city.”
The head of the country’s emergency organization said: “About 250 billion tomans have been spent for 50 air emergency bases, and we ask the government and parliament to consider a budget for air emergencies.”

We have 3 major challenges in the emergency room
The head of the country’s emergency organization stated: We have three major challenges in the emergency department, manpower, ambulance and the discussion of physical space are the three challenges we face in the emergency department.
Miadfar stated: We are facing a shortage of manpower because we do not have a force that can work in the emergency department; Of course, this year it was decided to launch medical emergencies in the country’s top universities, and more importantly, to use indigenous forces in a city.
He continued: We have not imported an ambulance for about 4 years; We have 5,500 ambulances, of which 3,000 are worn out. It is over 14 years old.
The head of the country’s emergency organization said: “In the metropolises, we are facing a serious problem in providing bases, part of which the government can help with the budget, and the other part, charities can work and help build emergency bases along with schools and hospitals.” .
Miadfar said: “In the world, the credit of medical emergencies is allocated based on performance, but in Iran, it is not the case that we propose to improve the budget allocation process.”
