The Scottish Ambulance Service serves as the frontline emergency and non-emergency medical transport provider for Scotland, operating from its base in Edinburgh. It serves a population of more than five million across mainland and island communities, handling roughly 1.8 million calls annually and attending about 700,000 emergencies and unscheduled incidents. The organization relies on a substantial workforce and volunteers, with thousands of staff and more than 1,200 volunteers supporting community response roles. In addition to standard ambulance response, it runs air ambulance operations and coordinates the ScotSTAR Specialist Transport and Retrieval Service to move seriously ill patients to specialized treatment, while the Patient Transport Service moves over a million people to scheduled hospital appointments. The service supports fourteen territorial Health Boards across mainland Scotland and its islands and engages with a broad volunteer network. In 2026, it announced a national rollout of a volunteer responder app following pilots across Community First Responder schemes, reflecting an expanded approach to community emergency response.
