Stand with our ambos!

Let the Health Minister and Ambulance Victoria CEO know that Victorians are standing with our ambos, for a better, safer ambulance service.

We’ve got a brand new ambulance service: Ambulance Victoria.

But we’re still stuck with the same old problems: long delays in emergencies, dangerous paramedic fatigue and our intensive care MICA service in meltdown.

Victorian ambos are campaigning for a better, safer ambulance service for you and your community.

We surveyed nearly 20 percent of Victorian ambos and found that 75% have made mistakes because of extreme fatigue. They’re averaging just 6 hours sleep each night and often less than that.

We must fix this, or even more experienced ambos will leave the job. That will mean waiting even longer in emergencies.

We want Ambulance Victoria to provide a first class service to all Victorians.

That’s why we urgently need to resolve our enterprise bargaining negotiations.

A key demand is for 10 hour rest-breaks between shifts. That will allow us to rest properly between shifts, which are often more than 14 hours long.

Send your message now. Let our State Government know that Victorians are standing with our ambos!

Tell your friends and family to support our ambos too!
