NSW Ambulance has welcomed 23 new paramedic interns and 21 trainee emergency medical call takers after they were officially inducted into the service at a ceremony at the State Operations Centre in Sydney.

They join 495 paramedics and 117 emergency medical call-takers who have begun roles with NSW Ambulance this year so far.

These new recruits will further boost frontline health services across the state, when they start their roles from Saturday.

The new recruits joining the service come with a range of backgrounds and experience, including Paramedic Intern Rebecca Olds was inspired to join NSW Ambulance following a horse-riding accident involving her mother which NSW Ambulance paramedics responded to.

The paramedic interns will be posted across NSW to complete the on-road portion of their 12-month internships before taking permanent positions in metropolitan and regional areas.

The emergency medical call takers will be posted to the Sydney, Northern and Western Triple Zero (000) control centres.

The Minns Labor Government is committed to supporting our paramedic workforce, investing in a record pay increase for paramedics in December making them among the highest paid in the country and rolling out of 500 additional paramedics in regional, rural and remote communities.

Minister for Health, Ryan Park said, "These graduates will be joining a cohort of paramedics and emergency call-takers who serve as a lifeline for many in their moments of need.

"They will bring dedication and skill to their work, providing vital support and care to the people of NSW when they need it most."

NSW Ambulance Chief Executive Dr Dominic Morgan said, "Congratulations to our newest graduates. Today, you join a proud tradition of service in NSW Ambulance, ready to make a real difference in the lives of those you will care for. Your journey is just beginning, and we are excited to see the impact you will have on our communities.

"I want to acknowledge the tremendous effort each of our graduates has put into their training. Thank you for your commitment, and welcome to NSW Ambulance."

Paramedic Intern, Rebecca Olds said, “NSW Ambulance is the service that helped me and my family - I want to help the community that helped me when I needed it most.”
