St John Ambulance, Bermuda located at Dunrossil House, 21 Point Finger Road, Paget is part of the Order of St John, has been in Bermuda since 1894 and is a Charitable Health Care Organization. It is based on the concept that we can provide First Aid and CPR (AED) training, medical and emergency coverage along with ambulance transport as requested and/or required to the community. We rely solely on our volunteer members and charitable donations.

Currently we have four ambulances for medical care and transport, plus one mobile clinic and two medical response motor bikes. St John Ambulance Bermuda also assists by providing our ambulances as needed to the local hospital (KEMH).

We take great pride in providing opportunities for Bermudians who aspire to develop a career in the medical field. We aim to shape the lives of Bermudians that become involved in our organization, providing general life-skills such as Medical training, Teamwork, Responsibility, and Leadership.

We have over fifty members who have been certified in First Aid as well as Medic First Responders and licensed ambulance drivers for our fleet. In addition,
