St. John Ambulance Home

Welcome to the Windsor-Essex St John Ambulance website.  We are a volunteer group of people from your community who believe in service to the people of the Windsor-Essex area.

St. John Ambulance today is comprised of more than 13,000 volunteers providing service in more than 300 communities from coast-to-coast. St. John Ambulance volunteers in Canada remain as dedicated as the Knights of ages ago, providing millions of hours of service through emergency first-aid readiness, health and safety training, youth programs, Therapy Dog visitation services and much more.

St. John Ambulance volunteers give their time to provide community services to the people around them. The Brigade offers several avenues for volunteers to learn new skills and use them in their communities. Volunteers learn the skills to become a first aid provider—delivering patient care at a variety of sporting and cultural events. They’re trained and ready to provide disaster relief. The Brigade also offers the opportunity to gain valuable experience, including leadership, communication and interpersonal skills.

Young people hold the hopes and dreams of tomorrow. St. John Ambulance believes young people can make a significant contribution. The St. John Ambulance Youth Program was established to give young people ages 6 to 20 the chance to help their community by joining in the work of the St. John Ambulance Brigade. The Youth Program is great for social, educational and personal development through community service, special events and leisure activities, as well as training in first aid, health care, life and safety skills. From wilderness survival to nutrition, astronomy, team sports and summer camps, the Youth Program opens the doors to community service.
