Without the vital work of our Corporate Services teams, our frontline crews would not be able to reach patients and save lives.

Corporate Services at EMAS cover several different directorates. This page shows just a few of the roles and responsibilities of our Corporate Services teams. Every team plays a crucial role in ensuring that EMAS services are safe, efficient and fit for purpose.
