What are First Responders? First responders attend emergency calls prior to the arrival of an emergency ambulance in order to provide lifesaving treatment, stabilise patients and promote recovery. They receive training from the Scottish Ambulance Service that qualifies them to respond to a variety of life threatening conditions. On duty personnel are dispatched by the Ambulance Control Centres after an emergency ambulance has first been directed to attend.
