North West Ambulance Service NHS Trust

Departments and services

The Trust handles in the region of a million emergency calls each year and undertakes approximately three million patient journeys which accounts for 17% of national activity. Within this total, over two million patient journeys are undertaken by our non-emergency service for patients travelling to hospitals and other healthcare centres for treatment.

The Trust employs over 5,200 staff who operate from 120 sites across the region and provide services for patients in a combination of rural and urban communities, in coastal resorts, affluent areas and in some of the most deprived inner city areas in the country. We also provide services to a significant transient population of tourists, students and commuters.
