New year, new stations for SAAS

Mount Barker SAAS station

SA Ambulance Service opened two new stations in January as it continues with a major expansion in the service’s capacity.

The new Mount Barker and Golden Grove stations are part of the SAAS Operational Growth Plan which will deliver 24 new, rebuilt or upgraded ambulance stations, a new Emergency Operations Centre and 350 additional staff and 36 new ambulances.

Both stations are in areas that are experiencing rapid population growth, so the new stations will not only improve current response times but also help to meet future needs.
