St. John Ambulance Ireland

St. John Ambulance is at the forefront of providing first aid and training services for over 100 years.  Our members are all unpaid volunteers dedicated to a simple vision; that everyone should have immediate access to first aid no matter where they are or what they are doing at the onset of illness or injury.

As an Approved Organisation for the implementation of PHECC 3rd Edition CPGs at EMT, paramedic and advanced paramedic levels, we work with the appropriate event organisers, statutory agencies and other organisations to provide first aid cover at public gatherings of all shapes and sizes. Our black and white uniform in known to many patrons of sporting and music events nationwide.

A basic first aid course can help you make the difference between a life saved and a life lost.

A dedicated team of instructors provide first aid training to members of the public, at schools and at corporate premises.  We also provide first aid courses and occupational first aid courses at our premises in Dublin and other venues nationally.  Where appropriate, our courses are externally accredited by FETAC, PHECC, and other agencies.

We welcome new volunteers and look for bright and enthusiastic people to join our organisation.  No prior pre-hospital experience is required.  We provide a full range of internal courses to our members, up to and including Emergency Medical Technician (EMT).
