Terms of Operation
Foundational regulatory guidelines for first responders and public users.
health_and_safety Emergency Protocol Disclaimers
The Mngohol Life Saving Foundation (MLSF) operates as a rapid-response support entity. Our emergency protocols are designed based on international clinical standards but are subject to the constraints of local infrastructure and resource availability.
Users of our emergency dispatch services acknowledge that response times may vary due to environmental factors, traffic conditions, and the severity of the triage state. MLSF reserves the right to prioritize interventions based on clinical urgency (Red-Tag vs Green-Tag priority).

gpp_good Liability & First-Responder Mobilization
Liability Limitation Clause
To the maximum extent permitted by Nigerian Law, MLSF, its directors, and its clinical staff shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from the voluntary application of life-saving techniques by trained responders in the field.
Responders mobilized through the MLSF platform are expected to act within the "Good Samaritan" legal protections where applicable. MLSF provides technical guidance and coordination but does not assume direct vicarious liability for the independent actions of non-staff volunteer responders.
