💐Happy Mother’s Day to SAAS mums! They balance a hectic life schedule, in order to help us run our organisation & serve the community.
Just like SAAS mums, Di, Miriam, Trudy & Angela, who are all working today.
Have a wonderful day, and a shout out to the mums on shift today.

SAAS is truly saddened by news of the passing of a NSW paramedic colleague today. The circumstances are incredibly tough to comprehend. 

Our deepest condolences are with the paramedic’s loved ones and the entire emergency services family during this difficult time.

Congrats to Dan, our Director of Nursing who has been awarded an Australian Operational Service Medal.

The AOSM recognises Dan’s contribution, alongside other ADF personnel, in the evacuation of Afghan people back to Aus.

It’s an honour to have Dan as part of the SAAS family

We are celebrating women’s achievements 💁‍♀️here at SAAS today, in conjunction with #InternationalWomensDay and the The Council of Ambulance Authorities – 2023 CAA Women in Ambulance Awards.

Congratulations to all of our SAAS Women in Ambulance recipients!

We work around the state and around the clock. South Australia is large and often our teams need to cover a lot of ground – sometimes by air. There is no doubt that seeing a helicopter land and take off and help our patients is always a sight.

Love is all around at SAAS ❤ – here are some SAAS couples from around the state; Alex and Jake (based at Glengowrie and Brooklyn Park), Jane and John from Goolwa, and Krystal and Christopher from Strathalbyn.
We hope everyone has a Happy Valentine’s Day💕

This morning we hear heartbreaking news about two of our emergency service colleagues from Queensland Police who were killed in the line duty.
SAAS extends deep sympathies to these heroes, their families, and their colleagues.
May you Rest In Peace. With Honour They Served💙

Good morning South Australia!☁️ While it doesn’t feel like summer is here just yet, no matter what you're up to this weekend, we hope it's a happy, healthy & safe one. 📸Thanks to SAAS team member Petta for sending through this photo of a summer storm rolling through Coober Pedy.

Today marks International Volunteer Day, celebrated on 5 December around the world. SAAS proudly thanks its volunteers across SA for all that they do each & every day. 👏

Today we feature a message of thanks from our CEO, Rob Elliott.

Happy International Volunteer Day! ✨

And they’re off! 🚑
