Road Ambulances at NETS are operated by a team of Driver/Service Assistants employed by NETS.

Led by Operations & Facilities Manager, John Dufty, the drivers include:
  • Frano Bargaric
  • George Batalis
  • Martin Bradley
  • Bruce Dalziell
  • Luis Herrera
  • Adrian Hogg
  • Craig Sevil
  • Jennifer Walker
  • Tom Walsh
  • Darren Ware

NETS has a fleet of ambulances comprising 3 Ford Transits and 3 Mercedes Sprinters. Their specialised design includes a unique, self-loading transverse loading system for life support units suitable for newborns, infants and young children and a conventional rear-loading stretcher-based system for life support systems for school-age children up to adult size.

The ergonomic design allows single person vehicle operation and a forward-facing working environment for the clinical NETS team.
