Moama and the surrounding cross-border communities are set to benefit from a major boost to emergency healthcare services, with a new ambulance station planned to open later this year.
The purpose-built facility—proposed for Wild Avenue in Moama—will strengthen frontline medical care in the region, improve response times, and support the growing needs of local residents and visitors alike. Equipped to meet modern paramedic operational requirements, the station will also provide a safe and functional workspace for emergency crews.
The new station will be home to five additional paramedics and three NSW Ambulance vehicles. It adds to recent frontline workforce increases across the region, including 15 additional paramedics in Deniliquin and 10 in Albury.
NSW Ambulance has identified Moama as a high-priority location following a detailed service planning process aimed at improving regional coverage and bolstering cross-border resilience.
A drop-in information session will be held from 10am to 2pm on Thursday 5 June at Service NSW, Murray River Council (52 Perricoota Road, Moama), giving community members the opportunity to learn more about the new facility and how it will serve the region.
The new Moama Ambulance Station is expected to be operational later this year, providing critical support to paramedics and offering greater confidence to the community in times of emergency.
