Scania recently delivered a coach to Kementerian Kesihatan Malaysia (KKM), Bahagian Kesihatan Pergigian, Jabatan Kesihatan Negeri Sabah. The KKM Mobile Dental Clinic that comes with the complimentary 24/7 Scania Assistance service and the data-driven Scania Fleet Management System package will be exclusively deployed for the Sandakan district. With this well-equipped Scania coach that is fuel- efficient, safe, environmentally friendly with reduced CO2 emission and comfortable, the mobile dental team will be able to reach Sandakan’s remote areas and serve the public more effectively.
The KKM Mobile Dental Clinic is approved under the Malaysia Plan projects. KKM Mobile Dental Clinic is equipped with portable dental equipment and relies on the Scania custom-built coach to reach Sabah’s remote regions to deliver its services to the waiting populace. A reliable, durable, fuel efficient and environmentally friendly coach is required for this job as this KKM Mobile Dental team provide outreach dental treatment in kindergartens, schools, to toddlers, the elderly, and special needs children.
As an addition to Scania’s fuel-efficiency, this Scania coach comes with the Opticruise with Eco-mode as standard, enabling further fuel savings. The Scania coaches’ safety features include the Electronic Braking System (EBS), the Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) with traction control and hill hold when required. The automatic and manual control Retarder further adds to the braking system while putting less strain to the wear and tear of the brake- pads. Independent front suspension for unparalleled stability, comfort and safety. It also comes with the 3-fire alarm sensors for any emergency.
A Scania Vehicle Introduction training was held before the event at the Bahagian Kesihatan Pergigian, Jabatan Kesihatan Negeri Sabah. This training by Scania Driver Trainer, Adnan Ibrahim for two of the KKM Mobile Dental Clinic drivers is imperative in getting these drivers familiar with the controls and their functions and the necessary initial steps that they are required to do in any emergency. Essentially, getting the drivers up to speed in handling the Scania coach in the right way would prolong the life of the coach and keep it in prime condition, even more so if the coach is maintained by Scania’s workshops.
