St John is the leading provider of first aid and paramedic services in the Northern Territory, delivering day-to-day emergency care, providing volunteer first aiders and high quality first aid products, equipment and training. We are a self-funded charity directly linked to the Order of St John which is a long established global organisation that can trace its roots back over 900 years. The organisation has been in Australia since the 1800s and in Darwin since the 1950s. We work hard to build resilience in the NT community through everything that we do. From teaching first aid to restocking first aid kits, through to our paramedics and volunteers and their service to the community. We undertake important projects such as Community Education and First Aid in schools where we provide free non-accredited first aid training to remote communities, new parents and in schools, as well a Public Access Defibrillator project where we aim to have 1,000 public access defibs in the community by the end of 2021. As a charity, all profits from our products and services, such as first aid training, first aid kits or patient transfers, are put straight back into the community through our volunteer program.

Cyclone season is officially here!

It's time to check the torch, stock up on batteries and make sure there's enough baked beans to last a lifetime.

While you're ticking off your cyclone prep checklist, don't forget your first aid kit!

A bad bleed. A nasty fall. A shattered window. When things go wrong, having the right supplies on hand can make all the difference.

This cyclone season, make sure your kit is stocked with the right essentials.

This Halloween, the scariest thing our paramedics should face is a costume. Not violence.

In the early hours of this morning, two St John NT paramedics were inside their ambulance in Malak when a person allegedly swung a heavy metal chain with a padlock attached into their windscreen.

Thankfully, neither paramedic was injured, but the consequences could have been devastating.

The attack has also taken an ambulance off the road, placing further pressure on our emergency resources.

The alleged offender has since been arrested by NT Police.

Our paramedics face enough challenges without having to fear for their own safety.

Violence against emergency workers is never acceptable. Not on Halloween. Not on any day.

Please respect the people who are here to help you.

We spend a big part of our lives at work, so the culture we create there matters.

As R U OK?’s new national training delivery partner, we’re helping more Territory workplaces build the confidence to check in, speak up and support each other when it matters.

R U OK? at Work – Conversations in Practice is now available as private workshops for your team.

Because better conversations at work can have an impact well beyond the workplace.

Great care starts with great training!

Some of our volunteers recently put their skills to the test at a practical assessment day, tackling realistic emergency scenarios as they work towards their Certificate III in Basic Health Care.

This qualification is an important step towards becoming an Advanced Responder, and we're proud to see our volunteers continuing to challenge themselves and build their skills!

A big thank you to our volunteers and trainers for all the hard work they've put in! 👏
