Ambulance in Moknine: medical transport to Monastir and the Sahel

Moknine is one of the thirteen delegations of Monastir Governorate. Returning home after hospitalisation or travelling to an appointment, treatment session or Monastir University Hospital may require medical transport when public transport is unsuitable. Based in Monastir, EMS Ambulance assesses journeys to and from Moknine.

Medical links from Moknine

Transport may connect Moknine with Haj Ali Soua Regional Hospital in Ksar Hellal, Fattouma Bourguiba University Hospital in Monastir or a facility in Sousse or Mahdia. Provide pickup address, receiving ward, required arrival time and patient mobility. Departure is planned backwards from the appointment. Moknine–Monastir travel time depends on addresses and traffic; no unverified duration is given.

When the Sahel metro is unsuitable

The Sahel metro links some towns in the governorate with Monastir, Sousse and Mahdia. It is unsuitable for someone who must lie down, requires oxygen or cannot remain seated. In these cases, suitable ambulance transport can be assessed according to medical needs and availability. See patient transport.

Preparing a return home to Moknine

After hospitalisation, provide the full address and a landmark such as a mosque, school or metro station. Describe floor, lift, steps, home access and who will receive the patient. This helps avoid unexpected access problems on arrival.

Towards the Sahel and more distant cities

From Monastir, EMS published estimates are:

  • Sousse: about 30 minutes by road.
  • Mahdia: about 50 minutes by road.
  • Kairouan: about 1 h 15 by road.
  • Sfax: about 1 h 50 by road.
  • Tunis: about 2 hours by road.

Contact EMS on +216 48 024 000 or WhatsApp with pickup, destination, date, required arrival time, patient position (seated, lying down or on oxygen) and accompanying person.

Life-threatening emergencies

Ambulance in Monastir

For EMS, Monastir is not just one destination among many: it is the city where the team is based, at Office 10 in the Mzali Innovation building, 19 rue Abou Bakr Essedik. Most of our transports start or finish here, somewhere between Fattouma Bourguiba University Hospital, the hotels of Skanes, the airport and the towns of the governorate. This page gathers what you need to know to prepare a private ambulance journey from or to Monastir.

Ambulance in Sousse

Sousse brings together two university hospitals, a strip of hotels running all the way to Port El Kantaoui and a medina listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site: three settings with very different access constraints. Based in Monastir, the EMS team works regularly in Sousse and the surrounding towns, from Hammam Sousse to Kalâa Kebira, carrying out transfers between facilities, returns home and journeys to the airport.

03

Ambulance in Mahdia

Mahdia is at once a fortified peninsula and a seaside resort: a compact medina behind the Skifa El Kahla gate, a resort area running north along the beach and, all around, a governorate of olive groves stretching as far as El Jem and Chebba. From its base in Monastir, EMS arranges journeys from here to Tahar Sfar University Hospital (CHU Tahar Sfar), the hospitals of the Sahel, the airport or a home address.
