From humble and disparate beginnings amongst the separate Colonies of 19th Century Australia, our ambulance services have evolved into one of the most effective, proficient and far reaching paramedic networks in the world.
From the busy urban centres, the vast regional and rural districts, to the remote outback, over 33,000 paramedics, communication centre operatives, researchers, analysts, corporate staff and volunteers provide unrivaled service to foster and build the health and well being of all Australians.
We all share the feeling of concern as we see an ambulance speed past with it flashing lights and sirens blaring-someone is hurt and needs help.
The Royal Australian Mint proudly honours the tireless and stoic paramedics who provide help in our hour of need, when seconds count.
