Ambulance Australia
Australian paramedics respond to life-or-death emergencies.
Ambulance Australia is a factual series on Network 10 that shadows paramedics, call-takers, and dispatchers from New South Wales, Queensland, and Victoria, from emergency control centres to the streets. Inspired by the UK series Ambulance, it debuted on 16 October 2018, focusing on NSW crews handling daily high-stakes calls. These first responders rely on training and instinct to make life-or-death decisions in emotionally charged or dangerous scenarios. The show has aired multiple seasons, with early filming centred on metropolitan Sydney, and later seasons covering Queensland and Victoria. It has also been broadcast in New Zealand and is available on streaming platforms like Amazon Prime and BBC iPlayer.
