Combined Adult Division (MCAD) is a division under the command of
SJAM North East Area, State of Penang. MCAD is formed under provision of Act 74, St. John Ambulance (Incorporation) Act, 1972, and General Rules and
Regulations of SJAM. MCAD was
officially established on 16 December 1999 with strength of only 15 adult
members.
With the aim to
retain more school members to continue serving mankind, at the same time to
maintain the membership for the organisation, the
effort to form a new division thus started.
At this moment,
MCAD is the only open division
in the North East Area, Penang.
Our members are involved in various types of trainings, standby duties,
ambulance service of transporting patients to home or hospital, emergency
ambulance responses and many more.
Standby duty is
the principal business of St. John Ambulance of Malaysia (SJAM). MCAD is a major contributor in this
section of service. Our members are always there to make sure the safety of
all people. MCAD also introduced
Emergency Ambulance Support Service (EASS)
in year 2003 to supplement the existing emergency ambulance service for Penang community.
