New Ambulance station
The new state-of-the-art Morayfield Ambulance Station on Lindsay Road was officially opened last Friday morning.
The $8.45 million facility was purpose-built to help improve response times and health outcomes for the Moreton Bay region.
The station features a 10-bay ambulance bay with space for an additional five non-acute Queensland Ambulance Service (QAS) vehicles, as well as a write-up area and training space for the officers.
The frontline staff at the station will comprise one officer-in-charge, 16 paramedics, three mental health co-responders, and two cadets. Community Safety Minister and Member for Morayfield, Mark Ryan, attended the official opening, along with senior Queensland Ambulance officers.
“We know just how crucial our frontline staff are when it comes to helping our community in their time of need, that is why it is so important to ensure they are operating out of state-of-the-art facilities,” Mr Ryan said.
“It is essential that our heroes in teal are well-equipped and supported to adequately respond to those community members.”
