EFR’s mission is simple, yet vital:
to provide rapid, lifesaving medical assistance to people in the rural areas and villages of the Paphos district.
EFR’s commitment is to shorten response times in communities where
reaching an ambulance can take 20+ minutes. Using a network of
volunteer-trained responders, ready day and night, to bridge that critical gap and give everyone in Paphos access to immediate first aid support.
Coverage Area: Serving remote villages and surrounding areas across the Paphos region.
Team: Fully trained and equipped volunteer Emergency First Responders, operating
24/7.
Emergency Response
Volunteers are alerted via phone/app and dispatched immediately following
initial ambulance contact. They carry essential emergency gear—AED
defibrillators, oxygen, stretchers, first-aid kits, and thermal
blankets—allowing them to arrive within minutes to stabilise patients
until paramedics take over.
Training
All responders are trained at Security Absolute Services’ licensed EFR
Training Centre in Tala (License No. S28928),
ensuring high standards of care.
Community Outreach & Education
We raise awareness of emergency protocols and promote safety in remote
communities. Regular posts on EFR Facebook group underscore EFR public
education initiatives and community updates.
Support & Fundraising
EFR efforts are sustained through generous donations and fundraising. We
extend heartfelt thanks to EFR sponsors: Angels Guardians, Pals
Magazine Cyprus, Pick‑A‑Lock, Kendall Events,
Parker Prough Property Management, and Security Absolute Services
(Se.A.S.) Ltd.
