The Contracting Authority employs more than 5,000 staff and 1,000 volunteers to deal with 1,384,547 (2023/24) emergency calls every year. Staff and volunteers are trained and experienced in caring for patients in a variety of situations, ranging from life-threatening illness and injury to less serious situations such as falls in the home or patients with minor injuries.

Further information regarding the Customer can be obtained from www.eastamb.nhs.uk. The existing Contracting Authority estate comprises of; one headquarters, three emergency operations centres, depots, ambulance stations and response posts, however it is not able to support the requirements of a modern ambulance service or any possible changes as a result of the Ambulance Response Program (ARP). Therefore, the Contracting Authority’s estate will change as part of the Estate Transformation Plan. Under this plan, a ‘hub and spoke’ model will be created across the whole area served by the Contracting Authority. 18 new hubs will be created, located close to hospital emergency departments. Each will have staff facilities, management, and vehicle workshop facilities.
