The new station, funded by the state government, will support paramedics with facilities for quick responses to life-threatening emergencies.

It will have a three-bay garage for ambulances, training facilities, relievers’ quarters and a fully equipped kitchen.

It will also have two rest and recline areas and improved security and car parking for the station’s employees.

The station’s location next to Euroa Health has been carefully selected to ensure the best coverage of ambulance services for the community. It is also near other important community facilities, including schools.

The project is being delivered by the Victorian Health Building Authority and Ambulance Victoria.

Minister for Health Infrastructure Mary-Anne Thomas said paramedics provided Victorians with their expertise, compassion and dedication each and every day.

“It goes without saying, they deserve the best home base to help them recuperate and stay safe at work,” Ms Thomas said.

“We are rebuilding the ambulance station in Euroa to ensure the local community can receive the world-class lifesaving emergency care they deserve.”
