St John Ambulance Ghana was established in 1937 by the British Police to start Emergency Medical Services in Ghana. As an agency, it operates under the subvention of the Ministry of Health (MOH). It is mandated to provide First Aid services, training and Ambulance services throughout the country. St John Ambulance has since been working as an Emergency Medical Service (EMS) provider in the area of First Aid Services, Care, Ambulance Services and Community Health and Youth Development.
