Similar difficulties arise when accidents or mishaps befall tourists visiting Nusa Penida.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200bConsequently, the sea ambulance is seen as a way to speed evacuation and support medical treatment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200bSatria noted that the local government had long planned a similar program but could not implement a water ambulance due to budget constraints.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/sea-ambulance-now-on-standby-to-connect-bali-mainland-to-nusa-penida-lembongan-island-351370a.jpg\" alt=\"Sea Ambulance Now on Standby to Connect Bali Mainland to Nusa Penida-Lembongan Island\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200bHe hopes the sea ambulance service will work closely with the local government to ensure faster, high-quality healthcare services in Nusa Penida.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200bAccording to Klungkung\u2019s Regent, improving healthcare quality is crucial given Nusa Penida&#8217;s rapid tourism growth. Fast and adequate healthcare services are also part of the effort to ensure tourists feel safe and comfortable when visiting the area.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200bMeanwhile, Dr. \u00a0Dr. I Gde Yudha Kurniawan,Operations Director of <em>PT Nusa Medica Assistama<\/em>, said the service is intended for residents and tourists who need advanced medical care. \u201cThe primary goal of this Sea Ambulance is to expedite the patient referral process from clinics or primary care facilities to referral hospitals. We have prepared this service for both residents and international tourists, thereby supporting the tourism sector in terms of medical service readiness,\u201d said Yudha.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200bAccording to Yudha, sea-based medical transport is crucial for archipelagic regions, as patient referral requires rapid mobility while ensuring medical conditions are monitored and remain stable throughout the journey.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200bThe vessel is equipped with various critical-care medical devices to support the patient&#8217;s condition during evacuation, including ventilators, patient monitors, oxygen supplies, and other supporting medical equipment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200bTrained, certified medical personnel handle patient transfers to ensure necessary medical care can be administered during the water journey to the referral hospital on Bali\u2019s mainland.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200bIn the Bali region, the new water ambulance evacuation can serve several routes: Nusa Lembongan\u2013Sanur, Nusa Lembongan\u2013Padang Bai, Nusa Penida\u2013Sanur, and Nusa Penida\u2013Padang Bai.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200bService coverage can also be extended to Gili Air and Gili Trawangan, depending on need, referrals, and prevailing sailing conditions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200bDr. Yudha noted that conditions requiring referral via sea-based medical transport include head trauma, fractures, severe dehydration due to diarrhea, heart disease, and other medical conditions requiring mainland hospital treatment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200bMeanwhile, Ridho Ananda, Call Center Manager at <em>Nusa Medica Assistama,<\/em> said the readiness of the evacuation fleet depends not only on medical equipment but also on the vessel&#8217;s ability to facilitate sea-based transport.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200b\u201cThe fleet utilizes three Yamaha engines with a combined power of 750 horsepower. The vessel measures 11.10 meters in length, 2.70 meters in width, and has a draught of 1.10 meters,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200bThese specifications were selected to support sea-based medical evacuation, while prioritizing sailing conditions, local port conditions,&nbsp;
