PUBLIC ADVISORY # 24| 14 April 2026.
The Ministry wishes to advise members of the public that ambulance services at CWMH and other healthcare facilities around the country, is for transfer of patients and accompanying healthcare workers between healthcare facilities.
Ambulance retrieval from homes or other premises is coordinated by the National Fire Authority (NFA) who will then refer the cases to St John Ambulance should the need arise. When both avenues are being exhausted, the other option for members of the public, is to engage licensed private ambulance providers such as, Bula Ambulance, Zens Medical Ambulance, Nakasi Medical Center Ambulance. This has been the practice through the years and the Ministry continues to adhere to it. The Ministry also recommends hotel and resort managements to have an agreement with licensed private ambulance providers and to have in place in-house medical services cover for their patrons.

- National Fire Authority, please call 910
- St. John Ambulance, please call 1545
- Bula Ambulance (comes at a cost) please call 5850 for home or residential patient retrievals.
