New ambulance branches on the way for Gippsland

The new Paynesville Ambulance Branch will be located on Paynesville Road, Paynesville.

The site for the multi-million-dollar ambulance branch has been carefully selected to ensure the best coverage of ambulance services for the community. The new location has connections to local walking trails, waterways and nature reserves. It’s also close to other community facilities including schools.

It will feature:

• a three-bay garage for ambulances
• two rest and recline areas
• training facilities
• fully equipped kitchen
• improved security and car parking.

Paramedics are already operating from two new multi-million-dollar ambulance branches in Moe and Warragul.

Completed in late 2022, the new Moe Ambulance Branch features a five-bay garage and four rest and recline areas, while the new Warragul West Ambulance Branch has a four-bay garage and four rest and recline areas.

The Victorian Government has committed around $249 million since 2015 to upgrade and rebuild ambulance branches.

The new and upgraded buildings will provide better working conditions for paramedics and ensure lifesaving emergency care is available for all Victorians.
