Emergency Ambulance Crew

About the Emergency Ambulance Crew role

As Emergency Ambulance Crew, you will respond to emergency and non-emergency situations where you will assess and treat patients to a high skill level, providing support to your community. You will transport patients across all St John Ambulance services including supporting local ambulance services and working at events. You will provide high quality, professional and compassionate care at all times, and support to other St John ambulance crew and first aiders.

This crucial role is for volunteers who can give high commitment, from getting trained to getting out on regular ambulance shifts. The role may be demanding, but is also one of our most rewarding, supporting the most profound patient outcomes. It’s great for you, great for your community and great for our nation.

Getting started

Training to become Emergency Ambulance Crew is a significant commitment. There are sixteen full days of classroom-based, practical training, usually held across several weekends, on top of twelve virtual theory sessions hosted on weekday evenings. Trainee Emergency Ambulance Crew will also have reading and online learning to complete, and a number of observation shifts on ambulances.

When you pursue this role, you'll be asked to indicate your preferred course dates. If you cannot make any, we will be back in touch with you when we have other courses to offer. It will be of the utmost importance to attend all your course dates.

Pursuing the role

When pursuing this role, we will check you meet the minimum criteria and then ask for a Personal Statement. Your statement will tell us why you want to be Emergency Ambulance Crew and what you will bring to the role. Our volunteer leaders in your area will read your statement and choose whether to invite you to a Selection Event, where you can find out more and continue pursuing the role.
