Before we begin · What is SafariCare?

A managed healthcare service for safari camps.

AfyaBlock SafariCare™ places a qualified healthcare officer at your camp and runs everything behind them: recruitment, training, equipment, medicines, supervision and emergency coordination. You pay one fixed monthly subscription.

Safari·Care

noun · service

A camp's on-site healthcare department, staffed and managed by Afya Block Consultants, so guests and staff in remote locations can see a trained clinician without leaving camp.

In plain terms

Three questions every camp manager asks first.

Who is it for?

Remote camps and lodges

Safari camps, lodges and tour operators working far from a referral hospital: from small tented camps to international luxury operators.

What do we get?

A healthcare department

A trained healthcare officer on site
A doctor on call by telemedicine
A stocked, maintained medical kit
Written emergency procedures
Monthly medical reports

How do we pay?

One monthly fee

Subscriptions start from $2,000 a month. There is no clinic to build and no medical staff on your payroll. AfyaBlock carries the hiring and compliance risk.

How it works in practice

When a guest feels unwell at camp.

What happens, step by step, at a camp running SafariCare.

STEP 1
Guest reports to the officer
The SafariCare officer is based at camp and reachable day and night.
STEP 2
Assessed and treated on site
Most cases are handled at camp with the medicines and equipment we supply.
STEP 3
Doctor joins by telemedicine
For anything beyond routine care, the supervising doctor advises remotely.
STEP 4
Evacuation coordinated
Serious cases are stabilised and transfer to a referral hospital is arranged.
STEP 5
Recorded and reviewed
Every case goes into the camp's monthly medical report and quality audit.

The Big Five

Guests come for the Big Five. We make sure they go home safe.

Long game drives, strong sun, dust and rough tracks are part of every safari. With SafariCare, a trained clinician is waiting back at camp.

The AfyaBlock SafariCare promise

The problem

Safari camps can't outsource the one thing that matters most: guest health.

Serengeti District Hospital, the nearest referral hospital building — Far from town, every minute to care counts

Healthcare officer in scrubs attending to a guest — This is what guest health looks like, handled properly

01

Remote & under-resourced

Camps sit hours from the nearest referral hospital, with thin or no on-site clinical capacity.

02

Expensive to solve alone

An in-house clinic means recruitment, licensing, equipment and ongoing medicine spend.

03

Rare but severe

Medical emergencies are low-frequency, high-stakes: the hardest risk to staff and budget for.

04

Reputation on the line

A mishandled incident threatens guest safety, reviews, insurance terms and repeat bookings.

Why it wins approval

One line in the boardroom: capital expense becomes operating expense.
