After 20 months of bargaining, paramedics are still chalking up their trucks everyday and fighting for a fair deal. Ambos are dedicated to saving lives but they deserve a life too. #springst #ambosdeservealifetoo

24 Advanced Life Support ambulances and 5 MICA ambulances dropped across Melbourne tonight. How many more times can we say it? Paramedics can’t turn out if they are burnt out. #springst #ambosdesevealifetoo

Emergency Workers met yesterday in Warrnambool to discuss how all three organisations are actively attacking their conditions in the workplace and how they can support each other. Why is the State Labor Government putting First Responders Last? #springst #solidarity

Ambulance ramping yesterday and last night at Sunshine and Ballarat Hospital. Hospital delays are compounding the already stretched resources across Victoria. #springst #ambosdeservealifetoo

Ambulance ramping last night at Royal Melbourne Hospital. Crews with the lights on have been ramped for greater than 40 minutes, meaning they cant respond to patients in the community and will probably be working hours of overtime. #springst #ambosdeservealifetoo

The only way workers lives improve is by unions and union members taking industrial action. Well done to all union members fighting for better wages and conditions. #ambosdeservealifeto

The workforce has voted. The results are in. 78.9% of AV employees voted. 97.3% voted YES! This is a massive result. Much higher than we could have imagined. Congratulations to paramedics & ambulance workers who took industrial action in pursuit of better wages & conditions.
