Tignale is rather off the beaten track, which creates an additional challenge for Tignale Soccorso’s volunteers. It is important to realise that here, more than in other locations, a thorough knowledge of the local area is just as essential as being a skilled emergency-response technician and arriving quickly at the scene of the incident.

Furthermore, while Tignale’s permanent population has remained stable over the past few years, the number of tourists has increased exponentially and, consequently, the number of call-outs. We respond to about 120 call-outs per year for 118 medical emergencies, and provide just as many pre-planned patient transport services ..
