Every year we respond to around 10,000 calls across emergency and urgent care, and non-emergency patient transfers in Guernsey.
Daily demand can vary with an average of 19 cases a day for the emergency ambulance service, however on our busiest day in 2025 we responded to 34 calls in 24 hours.

Public Health is conscious that reports of new meningitis cases in the UK may be worrying for parents with children studying away, and so has issued some advice for islanders, particularly those at university, to consider.
For updated FAQs, symptoms to watch for, and reliable information, please visit gov.gg/Kentmeningitis
The UK Health Security Agency, leading the response, advises that the overall risk to the wider public remains low, and has confirmed that at present, all known cases are in Kent.
Guernsey students at the University of Kent who plan to return home early for Easter are asked to contact Public Health at publichealth@gov.gg for support. There’s sufficient stock of antibiotics and the Meningitis B (MenB) vaccine for those eligible students returning to Guernsey.

We are due to be conducting some emergency response driver training at various locations around Guernsey during the next couple of days. This means you may see more ambulance vehicles using blue lights and sirens.
This training is vital to allow ambulance crews to respond safely, effectively and promptly to medical emergencies.
