We rely on Triple Zero (000) emergency medical dispatchers (EMDs) to ensure the appropriate deployment of resources to provide emergency and non-emergency care to our community.
Our call centres in Darwin and Alice Springs operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week and offer challenging and rewarding work in a fast-paced environment.
EMDs are the first point of contact in emergency situations, assessing a patient’s condition, providing essential instruction prior to ambulance arrive and coordinating patient transport movements.
As an EMD, you will be an exceptional communicator who has the ability to remain calm and multi-task under pressure. You will work 12-hour shifts on a 4/4 roster (four days on, four days off) with ten weeks annual leave.
EMD vacancies will be posted on our careers page.
All St John NT staff must be fully vaccinated against COVID-19.
