Why join Wellington Free Ambulance
We are the one and only paramedic service for Wellington and Wairarapa, and the only Paramedic service in the country who are free.
We are proud of the place we hold in our community, and the high-quality, leading-edge patient care that our people deliver every day. As well as emergency paramedic care, we provide patient transfer services; have paramedics who are part of the Life Flight crew and rescue squad, plus operate the 111 clinical communications centre for our region. We respond on average to around 57,000 emergency incidents per year.
We consider ourselves to be the best little ambulance service in the world, with an awesome team around 400 staff and over 80 volunteers who cover from Cook Strait to just north of Waikanae on the Kapiti Coast, and across to Mt Bruce in the Wairarapa. Being this size means when you join you do become part of our whanau and you really do make a huge impact for our community
What our Paramedics do
Our paramedic crews respond to emergencies 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. It’s their job to work quickly and help by providing world class, compassionate care to our community across Wellington and Wairarapa.
As a Paramedic you will be required to provide the highest possible standard of patient care in a consistently efficient, effective and professional manner. This role provides leadership within their assigned authority to practice, ensuring that professionalism and clinical excellence are always modelled and maintained, in all situations and interactions.
