Itโ€™s a growing phenomenon in Gauteng: volunteer paramedics assisting people involved in accidents or other life-threatening situations. Forced to act as a necessary response to scarce emergency services in their communities, ordinary citizens are stepping in to fill the gap.

Others, though, operate illegally by overstepping the mark and, in some instances, patients have died in their care. One woman has become so brazen that sheโ€™s developed a reputation as a vigilante paramedic, endangering the lives of those in desperate need of emergency care.
