Ambulance initiative for local families

 

Plunket scheme -58Local families with new babies will be able to call an ambulance without worrying about the cost, thanks to a new joint initiative by St. John Bream Bay and Northland Plunket. 

Peter White, of the St. John Bream Bay Area Committee, said the $98 fee for an ambulance call can make quite a difference to a young family’s household budget and under the new scheme families with newborn babies registered with Plunket are being offered a years free membership of the St. John Supporters Scheme, which normally costs $80 per household. 

Individuals and households who belong to this scheme are not charged for ambulance call-outs. 

In a letter, which will be handed to the parents of newborn babies by their Plunket nurse, the St. John Bream Bay Area Committee invites parents to sign up to the scheme and says ‘We hope this subscription can offer peace of mind, knowing that in the event you need to call an emergency ambulance, this supporters scheme covers the cost of the ambulance’. 

The St. John Bream Bay area stretches from Oakleigh in the North and up to and including Mangawhai in the south. 

The Bream Bay St. John Area Committee will cover the costs of any callouts by families signed up to this scheme.
