Our Trust
Our 7,500 staff serve a population of six-million people across 5,000 square miles of the West Midlands. We responded to 4,000 999 calls a day as well as completing one-million Patient Transport Service journeys each year.

Our locations
Across our 15 Ambulance Hubs and Patient Transport Service sites, we operate all across the West Midlands and into Cheshire.

How are we doing
A system of performance statistics is available for all ambulance services as a vital indicator of how well we respond to patient needs and maintain standards of care.
-
Board of directors
The Trust is led by a unitary board, consisting of executive and non-executive directors. In unitary NHS boards, all directors are collectively and corporately accountable for organisational performance.
-
Our governors
The role of the governor can help shape the future of the ambulance service. Governors can contribute to key decision making and see first hand how the front line works by undertaking observational shifts with our dedicated ambulance crews.
